Benjamin Netanyahu is seven seats short of a majority as nearly 85% of votes are counted in Israel's election. His right-wing and religious bloc stands at 54 seats, while the anti-Netanyahu Change bloc has 49. With the two Arab-majority parties holding 17 seats combined, a potential opposition alliance could reach 66 seats and challenge Netanyahu's grip on power. However, a partnership remains uncertain, leaving Israel facing a tense coalition-building battle that could determine who forms the next government.
