On November 7, Israeli President Isaac Herzog appointed Gadi Eisenkot, former IDF Chief of Staff and Netanyahu's leading opposition figure, to lead negotiations to form a new government. The mandate marks a significant development after parliamentary elections left Netanyahu's coalition short of the required 61-seat majority, with his Likud party and allied religious-nationalist bloc securing only 53 seats of 120.

Eisenkot's Yashar party won 21 seats and secured backing from Arab parties commanding a record 19 seats, giving him the strongest position to attempt government formation. However, building a coalition will prove extremely difficult; Eisenkot has only 28 days to succeed and faces significant political hurdles, including mutual opposition between key potential partners on military conscription exemptions and other policy issues.
