Early counting figures show Likud with 24.1% of the vote, ahead of Eisenkot's Yashar party on 16.1%. The figures reflect only the ballots counted so far, with final results still pending.

Israel elects the 120-seat Knesset by nationwide proportional vote, and the seat count determines which parties can form a governing coalition. Benjamin Netanyahu has long led the Likud party.
