Exit polls from Israel's election show the country remains deadlocked, with neither Prime Minister Benjamin Netanyahu's bloc nor challenger Gadi Eisenkot's alliance on track to secure a parliamentary majority, Al Jazeera English reported. The results mark Israel's first election since the October 7 attack and subsequent war in Gaza.
The tight race suggests neither camp has achieved the 61 seats needed to form a government in the 120-seat Knesset. Final results and coalition negotiations are expected to determine the outcome in coming days.
