Former Israeli prime minister and leader of the Likud party, Benjamin Netanyahu, in a blue tie, with supporters on Tuesday. TEL AVIV—Former Israeli Prime Minister Benjamin Netanyahu is on the cusp of a comeback that could usher in one of the country’s most right-wing and religious governments, after Israelis delivered him and his political allies a clear edge in Tuesday’s election. Mr. Netanyahu’s Likud party is projected to win 31 seats, with 84% of the vote counted, according to Israeli public broadcaster Kan, while Prime Minister Yair Lapid’s centrist Yesh Atid party is projected to win 24 seats. A government led by Mr. Netanyahu is projected to win between 62 and 65 seats in the 120-seat parliament, or Knesset, according to calculations by Kan.
JERUSALEM—As Israel heads to its fifth election in four years, Benjamin Netanyahu has been relentlessly campaigning across the country from the back of a delivery truck outfitted as a mobile campaign stage, imploring voters to come out on election day. Some call it the Bibi-bus, using Mr. Netanyahu’s famous nickname. “Come and vote,” he told supporters in the central Israeli city of Rehovot this month. “Convince your friends, family and neighbors.”
RAMALLAH, West Bank—Palestinian Authority security forces clashed with armed groups and gangs of young men who were hurling stones in the city of Nablus on Tuesday, as unrest intensified in the West Bank amid a series of Israeli military raids and arrests of militants. The early-morning gunbattles left at least one Palestinian dead and demonstrated how the Western-backed Palestinian Authority is losing control of northern parts of the West Bank, where officials say there is a growing but diffuse movement that is hostile to both the Israeli occupation and a Palestinian governing body seen by many of its subjects as corrupt and ineffective.
