Netanyahu lost to the opposition according to the first exit polls, but his party could be the strongest

Israeli TV channels are reporting exit polls for the parliamentary elections, indicating a likely outcome where Netanyahu's Likud and allies may secure 50 seats, while opposition parties could gain 70. Notably, 17-18 seats may go to two strong-performing Arab parties, and 52-53 seats to the Yashar party founded by General Gadi Eisenkot and its potential allies.
