Exit polls from Israel's parliamentary election show a close race between Prime Minister Benjamin Netanyahu and main rival Gadi Eisenkot, with neither side projected to win a 61-seat majority in the 120-member Knesset. Netanyahu’s Likud party is expected to remain the largest, while Arab-led parties are projected to win 18 seats, making them key to forming a government. Final results are expected by Friday, and a failed coalition could trigger another election.
