Question now is would such a government have legitimacy? Especially if Israel finds itself in a wartime scenario once again?

[Jeremy Diamond @JDiamond1]

As election results come in, all 3 major Israeli broadcasters have updated exit polls showing gains for Netanyahu’s Likud party & his governing coalition.
Netanyahu’s bloc is now either tied or ahead of Eisenkot’s change bloc.
Arab parties (also anti-Netanyahu) hold at 18 seats

[Jeremy Diamond @JDiamond1]

The Arab parties are unlikely to be invited to join a governing coalition (maybe, maybe Ra’am but even then they don’t get Eisenkot to a majority). But they could still help Eisenkot form a minority government by not showing up for the vote.

[Jeremy Diamond @JDiamond1]

Projected Israeli election results: No to Netanyahu, but not quite the victory the opposition was hoping for.
And a historic turnout among Palestinian citizens of Israel, driving a record number of seats to Arab political parties

[Jeremy Diamond @JDiamond1]

The Israeli PM often paints settler violence as the work of a tiny, fringe minority.
But the Israeli government has legalized dozens of illegal outposts that have carried out that violence. Outposts like Esh Kodesh.
Watch our full report here:

[Christiane Amanpour @amanpour]

Israeli settlements have massively expanded in the occupied West Bank under the current Israeli government – along with a major spike in violent attacks on Palestinians. @JDiamond1 reports on how the government has allowed this and whether elections could prompt any change.

[Jeremy Diamond @JDiamond1]

@the_andrey_x & @bradlander have both been released from Israeli custody. Dozens of activists who were with Lander are still detained

[Jeremy Diamond @JDiamond1]

Journalist/activist @the_andrey_x — who filmed the assault on WaPo’s Heidi Levine last week — was just arrested by Israeli forces.
Dozens of other Jewish solidarity activists, including @bradlander & @rabbis4HR activists, were also detained at another olive grove in the West Bank

[jasper nathaniel @infinite_jaz]

Twelve soldiers + police showed up in Taybeh olive field to stop a single Palestinian olive farmer from harvesting a single tree. After harassing him for 30+ minutes, a car full of some sort of special police officers stormed in and violently arrested the journalist/activist @the_andrey_x. One of the arresting officers shoved me, then showed me his bloody elbow and said I did it to him. (So if they take me next, that’s probably their pretense.) Second and third videos are other angle of the shove (including it here to be safe). Fourth video is from just before—the major military operation to stop a farmer from picking olives. Fascist state.

Israeli settler violence is ramping up in West Bank villages. CNN's @JDiamond1 reports on how Israel under Netanyahu has reshaped the territory.

[Jeremy Diamond @JDiamond1]

For years, the illegal Israeli outpost of Esh Kodesh served as a launchpad for violence against nearby Palestinian villages.
Then in December 2025, the Israeli government legalized it -- one of 104 new settlements Netanyahu's government has approved.
What happened next? More violent outposts sprung up, renewing the cycle.

To say this marks the end of an era doesn’t even cut it.
@amanpour has been synonymous with CNN & with top-tier international reporting for decades. I grew up admiring her, pinched myself every time I got to share a screen with her & have been grateful on so many occasions for the platform her show offered for in-depth, international coverage.
Will miss her dearly at CNN. But bravo on 43 extraordinary years. We should all be so lucky

9 days ahead of one of Israel's most pivotal elections, President Trump jumps in & endorses Netanyahu for prime minister, telling Israelis he "will never let you down!"
(Worth noting that while Trump has now made a habit of getting involved in other country's elections, US presidents used to stay out of allies' domestic politics)

[Jeremy Diamond @JDiamond1]

"Allegedly assaulted."
It's literally on video.

[Prime Minister of Israel @IsraeliPM]

The Prime Minister’s Office:

The facts surrounding the confrontation near Abu Falah, during which Washington Post photojournalist Heidi Levine was allegedly assaulted, remain unclear and are under investigation.

Israel unequivocally condemns violence against anyone—Jews, Arabs, Christians or journalists. Those responsible will be held accountable.

But serious questions remain. Reports indicate some 200 Arabs and far-left activists confronted approximately 40 Israeli youths. Footage shows masked individuals on both sides hurling objects, amid reports of fireworks fired at Jewish youths. Other footage appears to show Levine knocked down and immediately helped to her feet by the same unidentified individual.

The investigation must establish the facts, including who initiated the violence.

We will not allow disputed incidents to be exploited to demonize the hundreds of thousands of law-abiding Jewish residents of Judea and Samaria.

The facts must determine the conclusions. Not the headlines.

[Foreign Press Assoc. @FPAIsPal]

Another violent settler attack on a journalist: Israeli settlers beat up photographer in the occupied West Bank. Our latest statement.

[Jeremy Diamond @JDiamond1]

Multiple violent Israeli settler attacks in the West Bank this morning. Palestinian residents & journalists were beaten. Cars set on fire.

Q: What you’re saying is that for political reasons, hostages died, were murdered in captivity when they could have come home alive?
Netanyahu’s former military secretary: “That is accurate. They could have come home earlier.”

[UnXeptable @UnxeptableD]

💥 The general who woke Netanyahu on the morning of Oct. 7 just broke his silence.

He says:
⚠️ Netanyahu was warned of war 3 months earlier
⚠️ Logs from Oct 7 have been tampered
⚠️ Hostages “could have come back earlier”

תחקיר חשוב ביותר על 46 החטופים שנרצחו בשבי או נהרגו בשוגג על ידי צה״ל. אסור לשכוח וחייבים לעשות הכל כדי להגיע לחקר האמת.

Hear from Yuval Dancyg, whose father was held hostage by Hamas & killed in a tunnel in Khan Younis.
Then-IDF chief of staff Herzl Halevi told Dancyg the strike was a mistake & took responsibility. The IDF altered its protocols following the strike.

[Jeremy Diamond @JDiamond1]

That's why many hostage families we spoke to, like Yuval Dancyg, said they hold Hamas AND the Israeli gov responsible for their loved ones' deaths. Because 'total victory' was prioritized over hostage deals. And because military pressure inevitably led to some hostages being killed by the IDF /5

[Jeremy Diamond @JDiamond1]

Hear from Oren Setter, the #2 official on the IDF’s hostage task force during the first year of the war

[Jeremy Diamond @JDiamond1]

That was clearest in July 2024. Israel & Hamas were on the verge of a deal, when suddenly Netanyahu threw in a new demand: that Israeli troops remain along the Egypt-Gaza border. Setter & others warned "the price could be the life of hostages." And in August, the "Beautiful Six" were executed in Rafah /4
