Strong call after the elections in Israel. Eisenkot addressed Netanyahu

Israeli opposition leader Gadi Eisenkot has called for Prime Minister Benjamin Netanyahu to step down following parliamentary elections that did not yield a clear winner. Eisenkot stated that the public voted for change, indicating a loss of trust in Netanyahu's coalition. Exit polls suggest that neither of the main political blocs secured a majority in the Knesset. Eisenkot emphasized that with a high voter turnout of 77.7%, holding new elections would be a mistake. He proposed forming a 'Zionist government' focused on military service obligations and addressing social group respect. Netanyahu's Likud party is expected to remain the largest faction, but no party achieved the necessary majority.
