According to Israeli media, demonstrators gathered in Tel Aviv and called on Eisenkot to work with Arab parties, arguing that cooperation could pave the way for the formation of a new government.

Meanwhile, Israeli Prime Minister Benjamin Netanyahu has accused Arab parties of electoral fraud after they secured a record 19 seats in the election.

However, he has reportedly presented no evidence to substantiate the allegation. Arab political leaders have strongly rejected the accusations.

The election results have left Israel facing uncertainty over the formation of its next government, with no political alliance able to secure the 61 seats required for a clear parliamentary majority.

Preliminary results show that Netanyahu’s alliance has won 53 seats, while the opposition bloc has secured 48.

The results leave both sides short of the numbers needed to form a government independently, making potential coalition arrangements crucial to the next phase of political negotiations.

The official results of the election are scheduled to be announced on November 4.
