Israel election results: Neither Netanyahu nor oppn wins majority; what happens next?

With Arab-led parties holding 19 seats, opposition leader Gadi Eisenkot could seek their support to form a government. However, ideological differences complicate the numbers. A unity government, opposition defections or another election are among four possible scenarios, according to CNN.
