Jerusalem: Less than an hour before polls closed in Israel’s election on Tuesday, indicators showed strong support for the centrist Yesh Atid and the far-right Jewish Home parties, with the ruling Likud struggling, army radio said Tuesday.
Ahead of exit polls due to be published shortly after 10 pm (2000 GMT), the radio said Yair Lapid’s Yesh Atid and Naftali Bennett’s Jewish Home had turned into “the big surprise” of the election campaign.
Although Likud head Prime Minister Benjamin Netanyahu was likely to be easily re-elected, this would complicate his task of forming the next coalition government, it said.
