Israel's election ends in deadlock as final results show no clear winner

Over in Israel, the final count is in, and it's Benjamin Netanyahu's right-wing and far-right bloc that has lost its parliamentary majority. Now he's facing weeks of difficult negotiations among very different parties. The two Arab party lists are emerging as potential kingmakers. Our correspondent in Jerusalem, Noga Tarnopolsky, tells us more on the next steps to get the country out of political limbo. The first step, in fact, is the convening of the new parliament. There's no question, none of the sides are openly questioning right now the final tally of the vote. And that vote gives a 67 percent majority to parties that oppose Netanyahu. For them, the very first step will be to convene a new parliament that's scheduled to happen on November 10th, so in less than two weeks. A new parliament speaker should be named, representing this new majority. And the opposition's plan, as stated in Mr. Eisenkot's statement, which we're seeing now on the screen. Is immediately to pass a raft of laws which would give Israelis what they've been asking for in terms of an investigation into October 7th and also begin to undo some of the laws of Benjamin Netanyahu's judicial reform, judicial coup d'etat of the last three years. That is what the coalition apparently tried to stop yesterday. With explicit calls saying that the new parliament should not be convened, and that a new count of the elections had to be done. In fact, some of Netanyahu's allies said this election result had to be cancelled before it was even posted last night. So yesterday was a day of very, very high tensions. And I have to say, January 6th-like calls on the part of Netanyahu and his allies to stop the count of the votes and to not make that official.
