LIVE, legislative elections in Israel: Isaac Herzog, the Israeli president, urges political parties to "do everything" to form a government coalition, despite the lack of a clear majority

Israeli President Isaac Herzog urges political parties to form a coalition government following elections that show no clear majority. With over 85% of votes counted, Netanyahu's right-wing coalition leads with 53 seats, while the opposition, led by Gadi Eisenkot, has 48 seats. Arab parties are projected to secure 19 seats. Ahmad Tibi, an Arab party leader, believes the opposition could unseat Netanyahu if they unite. Herzog emphasizes the need to avoid new elections, as the counting of military and special ballots is set to begin. The EU expresses readiness for open dialogue with the next Israeli government.
