Israel ·

Israel's Central Elections Committee announced early on Thursday that counting had begun for votes cast through the double-envelope system in the Knesset election.

The Knesset is Israel's parliament, and forming a government requires a majority of its seats. Double-envelope ballots are typically cast by soldiers and diplomats and are counted separately.
