Israel's Election Deadlock: Can Political Parties Find The 61 Seats Needed To Form A Government?

Israel is facing a difficult coalition battle after election results failed to deliver a clear majority, despite high voter turnout. With 61 seats needed for a majority in the 120-member Knesset, political parties must now navigate complex negotiations to form the next government. President Isaac Herzog has urged parties to do everything possible to avoid another election. He is expected to begin consultations with Knesset factions after receiving the official results next week, as Israel seeks a way out of its political deadlock.
