Benjamin Netanyahu Re-elected As Israel's Prime Minister
Benjamin Netanyahu has won Israel’s elections defeating Prime Minister Yair Lapid who has since called his predecessor to congratulate him.
Netanyau is returning to power after being dislodged in 2021 by a coalition of the opposition led by Lapid.
Israel’s Central Election Committee on Thursday announced the final allocation of seats for the 25th Knesset, giving Netanyahu and his likely political allies 64 seats in the legislature, enough for a governing majority.
President Isaac Herzog will begin consultations with politicians on forming a new government after results are officially certified on November 9, he said Wednesday,CNN reported.
A Netanyahu return to the head of government could spell fundamental shifts to Israeli society. A Netanyahu government would almost certainly include the newly ascendant Jewish nationalist Religious Zionism/Jewish Power alliance, whose leaders include Itamar Ben Gvir, once convicted for inciting racism and supporting terrorism.
