Israel's election leaves Netanyahu bloc short of a majority
Netanyahu's bloc won 53 seats in Israel's Knesset, short of a majority. Results are to be certified and submitted to the president on November 4. Ultra-Orthodox allies are reportedly weighing backing opposition leader Gadi Eisenkot.
Why it matters
Coalition talks will shape Israel's policy on Gaza, Lebanon and Iran.
Background
Arab parties turned out in record numbers. No bloc has a clear path to govern.
