PoliticsIsrael election live: polls open in the most consequential vote in the country’s history

Voting has begun in Israel’s first election since the Hamas-led attacks of 7 October 2023, Israel’s subsequent destruction of Gaza and its war with the US against Iran. Most polls predict Benjamin Netanyahu’s coalition will lose its majority, while the opposition bloc may also fall short of the 61 seats needed to form a government.
