Israel's election ends without a majority: Netanyahu's bloc 53, opposition 48, Arab parties 19
The final count gave Likud 27 seats and Yashar 21, with neither bloc near the 61 needed in the 120-seat Knesset. Likud says Arab parties "stole" the vote and police say there is no evidence; the Shin Bet is probing suspected foreign funding, and President Herzog begins consultations after official results due November 4.
