With three months remaining until election day, Israel's general election is scheduled for October 27, according to the official timeline set earlier this month. The vote will mark the first time since the 1990s that a government completes a full four-year term.
Israel's general election is now three months away, with voting set for October 27, as previously confirmed by the official election schedule on July 12. The announcement marked the first time since the 1990s that an Israeli government completes a full four-year term, leading to a scheduled election rather than an early dissolution. According to a July 23 report, a record 595,000 first-time voters are expected to participate, representing roughly 8.7% of all eligible voters. The election campaign is expected to intensify in the coming weeks, with coalition tensions and security issues shaping the agenda.
