The United Torah Judaism party, which holds seven seats in the Knesset, declined to recommend Benjamin Netanyahu or any other candidate to form a government, while leaving the door open to supporting whoever meets its demands regarding Haredi Torah study and military service. The number of lawmakers expected to back Netanyahu’s nomination is set to fall from 53 to 46, while 67 are expected to recommend opposition leader Gadi Eisenkot. But being tasked with forming a government would not guarantee that he could do so: he would need the support of 61 of the Knesset’s 120 members. The Arab parties have expressed willingness to provide parliamentary support for his government without joining it, in return for guarantees that include halting home demolitions, combating crime and opening up a political horizon for Palestinians. President Isaac Herzog is expected to task one of the lawmakers with forming a government in the coming days. The nominee will have 28 days to do so, with the possibility of a 14-day extension.
