Israel new Government.
Israel president has tasked Benjamin Netanyahu with forming a new government following recent elections which didn't produce a clear winner.
Mr Netanyahu, Israel caretaker prime minister, got the most endorsements from MPs as the candidate to try to put a ruling coalition together. Neither he nor opposition parties won enough votes in last month's polls to be sure of forming a government. The elections in March were a record fourth in two years. Three earlier rounds ended inconclusively.
Mr Netanyahu's opportunity comes at the same time as he stands trial on charges of Fraud, bribery and breach of trust. He has denounced the accusations against him as a politically motivated, which hunt.
The leader of the right wing likud party now has an initial 28 days to try to secure sufficient backing from other parties in parliament to join him in a governing coalition.
