Israeli President Isaac Herzog asked the country's former Prime Minister Benjamin Netanyahu to form a new government on Sunday. Netanyahu, leader of the right-wing Likud party, and his alliance of far-right parties won a decisive majority in parliamentary elections. Under the Israeli law, Netanyahu has 28 days to form a coalition government, with a possible 14-day extension. Netanyahu served several years as prime minister before losing office in 2021.
