Netanyahu, Eisenkot camps clash over Israel election projections
Despite narrower exit poll figures, opposition leaders insisted the result was a defeat for the government.
What the coverage shows
CBS News and ABC News both frame the story as Israel’s election day and as a test of Benjamin Netanyahu’s political future. CBS says the race is wide open and points to “a couple key factors” that could shape his fate, while ABC calls it widely seen as a referendum on Netanyahu and adds that it is the first election since the war in Gaza.
