Prime Minister Benjamin Netanyahu and National Unity party leader Benny Gantz's former defence chief Gadi Eisenkot are moving to form a new government following an inconclusive election, Al Jazeera English reported. The push comes as neither bloc secured a decisive majority in the latest vote.
Coalition negotiations typically follow Israeli elections when no single party wins an outright majority. The talks will determine which parties join the government and what ministerial positions they receive.
