  "account": "Israeli ex-military leader Gadi Eisenkot's centrist Yashar Party, along with allied parties, announced plans for an official government inquiry into the October 7, 2023, Hamas-led terror attacks in Israel, which resulted in approximately 1,200 deaths and 251 hostages taken to Gaza. The attacks occurred during the tenure of current Prime Minister Benjamin Netanyahu. The opposition seeking term limits for the prime minister's office and an end to recent judicial reforms by the Netanyahu government is also part of the opposition to Eisenkot. The new Knesset, sworn in following the October 27 parliamentary election, resulted in no single bloc securing a majority, with Eisenkot's bloc holding 48 seats and Netanyahu's bloc holding 53 seats. Despite multiple attempts, Eisenkot has yet to successfully form a government, with President Isaac Herzog giving him a mandate to do so within six weeks.",
  "summary": "Ex-IDF chief Gadi Eisenkot has yet to forge a coalition that would allow him to replace Benjamin Netanyahu, despite the new Knesset being dominated by the critics of the current prime minister.",
