Knesset Opens Amid Shift
The new Knesset began its work amid efforts to form a government led by Gadi Eisenkot that would end Benjamin Netanyahu’s rule. Netanyahu called for the swift formation of an emergency government and said he was open to working with other parties. Avigdor Lieberman made his support conditional on excluding Netanyahu, ruling out both new elections and a minority government reliant on Arab parties. The United Arab List signaled that it was willing to join the government, while the Joint List said it would work to prevent Netanyahu’s government from continuing. The Arab parties won 19 seats. Eisenkot was tasked with forming a government after receiving the backing of 67 of the 120 lawmakers, and was given 28 days, with a possible 14-day extension.
