Wow!
Last week was the 3rd attempt at voting in a Prime Minister in Israel. As of this moment, there is no clear winner. The current PM, Benjamin Netanyahu, won the popular election, but he didn't get the 61 seats needed for a majority in the Knesset. He's only short 3, so now he has some work to do.
But his primary opponent, Benny Gantz, is working to collect the same seats out of the 62 remaining that are up for grabs. If he can do this, then he will be the Prime Minister.
Like I said last week, I don't really understand it all. But Amir Tsarfati with Behold Israel has been able to break it down for me in a clear way, so if you're interested, check out his Middle East Update here:
