Not investment advice. Muhabbit scores how much a story may matter, not which way to trade.

Israeli President Isaac Herzog has formally handed Yashar Party leader and former military chief of staff Gadi Eisenkot the mandate to form a government, following early elections held on October 27, 2026, sidelining Prime Minister Benjamin Netanyahu. The move marks a historic shift in Israeli politics, as Eisenkot—Netanyahu's principal rival—now controls the coalition-building process. The article did not specify seat counts or vote shares from the election results. Eisenkot must now assemble a governing coalition, and the key question is whether he can secure a majority or whether Israel heads toward another snap election.
