Israel's President Isaac Herzog has tasked Prime Minister Benjamin Netanyahu's strongest rival, Gadi Eisenkot, with forming a new government after a deadlocked election left Netanyahu's coalition with 53 of the Knesset's 120 seats, short of a majority. Eisenkot, whose Yashar party won 21 seats, has 28 days, and in a post on X writes, "This is the time to establish a national emergency government."
