Arab parties still don’t meet Eisenkot’s coalition conditions...

Following last week’s Israeli election, most of the incoming Knesset opposed Prime Minister Benjamin Netanyahu. Yashar party leader Gadi Eisenkot continued efforts to convert that opposition into a coalition including Arab parties.

As of Tuesday, Arab parties had not met Eisenkot’s coalition conditions. His bloc held 48 seats in the 120-seat Knesset, remaining short of a majority.
