Israeli President Isaac Herzog concluded consultations and authorized former IDF chief of staff Gadi Eisenkot to try to form a government, the president’s office said. Parties representing 67 Knesset members recommended Eisenkot; parties representing 46 recommended incumbent Prime Minister Benjamin Netanyahu; a 7-seat party made no recommendation. Herzog met with multiple political figures, including Netanyahu and Eisenkot, and informed Eisenkot of the authorization decision. Under Israel’s Basic Law on the Government, the designated lawmaker has 28 days to form a cabinet, extendable once by up to 14 days.
