85 percent of the ballot boxes have been opened in Israel. According to current results, the blocs led by Netanyahu and Eisenkot cannot reach the majority of 61 MPs required to form a government in the 120-seat parliament. Palestinian representative parties are in a key position with 19 seats.

Minister of Transport and Infrastructure Abdulkadir Uraloğlu reiterated the goal of a terror-free Türkiye in his October 29 Republic Day message. The Minister announced that some rail system lines in Ankara, Istanbul and Izmir will provide free service on October 29.

While the vote counting for the general elections in Israel continues, 85.6% of the ballot boxes have been opened. The pro-Netanyahu bloc won 53 seats, the opposition 48, and the Arab parties 19 seats. The majority of 61 votes required to form a government has not yet been reached.
Although most of the votes have been counted in the parliamentary elections held in Israel, neither Benjamin Netanyahu's ruling bloc nor Gadi Eisenkot's opposition bloc can reach the 61-seat majority required to form a government.
The process of forming a government after the Israeli elections is complicated by President Herzog's power to appoint and the key role of Arab parties. Netanyahu's efforts to secure a majority and the opposition's search for compromise increase the risk of political deadlock.
