Israeli President Isaac Herzog is moving toward tasking Gadi Eisenkot with forming a government, after 67 lawmakers recommended him, compared with 46 for Benjamin Netanyahu. But his prospects are complicated by coalition arithmetic. The Change bloc has 48 seats, compared with 53 for Netanyahu’s bloc, while the Arab parties hold 19 seats. Eisenkot would need either Arab support to form a minority government—a course his allies oppose—or to bring in the ultra-Orthodox parties, including United Torah Judaism, with seven seats, and Shas, with six, to reach 61 seats. As the chances of forming a government diminish, a unity government with Netanyahu or new elections emerge as two possible options, amid fears of growing doubts about the election results and security unrest around the Knesset.
