Gadi Eisenkot gets mandate to form govt in Israel after tight vote

Gadi Eisenkot received the mandate from President Isaac Herzog to form a new government in Israel. He aims to establish a coalition that can secure a parliamentary majority following the recent elections. Eisenkot's bloc holds 48 seats, while Netanyahu's coalition has 53 seats, complicating government formation. The situation is further complicated by the presence of Arab parties and ultra-Orthodox groups.
