Israel's parliamentary election appeared to have produced no clear winner, with exit polls indicating that both Prime Minister Benjamin Netanyahu's bloc and the opposition alliance seeking to replace him had fallen short of the 61 seats required for a majority in the 120-member Knesset. 

According to The Jerusalem Post, the exit polls projected Netanyahu's bloc to secure 51-52 seats, while the opposition bloc, comprising Yashar, B'Yachad, Yisrael Beytenu and the Democrats, was expected to win 49-51 seats. Channels 11 and 13 projected both sides to be tied at 51 seats each, while Channel 12's survey gave Netanyahu's bloc a slight edge with 52 seats. The opposition bloc declared victory shortly after the exit poll results were released, although neither side appeared to have a clear route to forming a government.
