Polling stations opened on Tuesday at 07:00 local time for Israel’s early parliamentary elections, which will be the fifth since April 9, 2019.
The results will determine the composition of the 25th Knesset (parliament), after which the process of forming a government coalition will begin and, if successful, a new government and prime minister will be sworn in.
