Israel election: Netanyahu fights for political survival as October 7 fallout looms

Benjamin Netanyahu faces a critical election in Israel after the October 7 attacks by Hamas. Voters are assessing his record and the implications of military actions in Gaza and against Iran. Gadi Eisenkot, his main rival, criticizes Netanyahu's approach and proposes a new direction. Coalition dynamics could shift, particularly if Arab voters mobilize against Netanyahu's party. The outcome will significantly impact Israel's political landscape and international relations.
