The vote count in Israel's parliamentary elections has officially concluded today, confirming a result that leaves Prime Minister Benjamin Netanyahu without the majority needed to form a government, despite his party, Likud, emerging as the largest political force.

According to Central Election Commission data, reported by i24NEWS, Netanyahu's bloc secured 53 seats in the 120-member parliament, while opposition parties took 48 seats. The two Arab lists, the Joint List and Ra'am, won 11 and eight seats, respectively.

To form a government, at least 61 mandates are needed, a threshold that none of the main blocs has reached.

The results also include votes cast through double envelopes, used for certain categories of voters. The count has been completed, but the data remains subject to verification before the official announcement, scheduled for next Wednesday.

Likud first, but Netanyahu loses majority

Likud has won 27 seats, maintaining its position as the largest party in the Knesset.

In second place is Yashar, the party led by former army chief of staff Gadi Eisenkot, with 21 seats. Former Prime Minister Naftali Bennett's B'Yachad party has secured 12 seats.

Within Netanyahu's bloc, the United Torah Judaism and Otzma Yehudit parties each won seven seats, while Shas and the joint Religious Zionism–Zehut list each secured six.

In the opposition camp, Yair Golan's Democrats won eight seats and Avigdor Liberman's Yisrael Beiteinu seven.

Several other formations, including the Reservists and Economy party, led by Yoaz Hendel and Yaron Zelekha, as well as Ofer Winter's party, failed to pass the electoral threshold of 3.25%.

The opposition has the numbers, but not the agreement

Although the opposition parties and the two Arab lists together control 67 seats, this result does not automatically translate into a governing majority.

Political differences and opposing positions towards cooperation with Arab parties constitute the main obstacle to creating a coalition that would replace Netanyahu.

Yair Golan has spoken out in favor of a political agreement that would allow the current prime minister to leave.

But Avigdor Liberman reiterated on Thursday that he will not participate in a government with either Netanyahu or the Arab parties.

He has stated that he would only consider a coalition of Zionist parties, which could include Likud, but with a leader other than Netanyahu.

Another possibility remains the formation of a unity government, although this alternative also faces opposition.

Eisenkot has ruled out participating in a government led by Netanyahu, including an agreement that would provide for the rotation of the prime minister's post.

In the absence of a compromise between political forces, Israel could face another electoral process.
