Netanyahu fighting for his political life in Israeli election
Israelis voted in one of the most important elections on Tuesday, with the potential to oust Prime Minister Benjamin Netanyahu and help shape the future of the war with Iran, the Gaza Strip and America's relationship with the Middle East. Matt Gutman reports from Tel Aviv.
What the coverage shows
Most outlets converge on the count still being unresolved or close to it, with CBS, NPR, AP and France 24 all stressing no clear winner or no official result yet. NBC’s two later items stand out for saying Netanyahu appears to have prevailed and for centering him as the apparent leader, while The Independent is the only outlet here to add a Trump-related angle and a separate human-interest item about one voter.
