Netanyahu se impone en las elecciones israelíes, pero queda lejos de la mayoría parlamentaria
What happened
Benjamin Netanyahu's Likud won the most votes in Israel's election, but his bloc fell short of a majority in the 120-seat Knesset, according to the central election committee.
Netanyahu's bloc took 53 seats, while the opposition led by Gadi Eisenkot won 48 and two Arab-led parties won 19.
A majority needs 61 seats, so Netanyahu is short by eight and Eisenkot's camp by thirteen.
Likud finished first with 27 seats and Eisenkot's party, Yashar!, second with 21, according to El Nacional.
The Likud has accused the Arab-led parties of stealing the vote and asked the election committee to investigate, without offering specific evidence, according to Clarín.
The election committee said the number of reported irregularities was low.
The committee chief also asked the Shin Bet to look into alleged foreign interference, and the new parliament is expected to convene on 10 November.
