Israel’s largest Arab party grouping said it would recommend opposition leader Gadi Eisenkot to form the next government after the election, according to reporting by France 24 and Al Jazeera.
The recommendation places the grouping behind Eisenkot as he seeks to form Israel’s next government following the election. The move was reported by both France 24 and Al Jazeera, which agreed on the central development.
Al Jazeera identified the parties involved as Ra’am and the Democrats. France 24 reported that Arab-majority lists had won 19 seats in the preceding election, a result it described as a record and one that could strengthen Eisenkot’s effort.
The available reporting describes the recommendation and the parties’ backing, but does not establish the outcome of Eisenkot’s government-formation bid.
