Israel faces weeks, possibly months, of political limbo after final results show there’s no clear winner in its elections. Neither of the two main blocs – one led by Prime Minister Benjamin Netanyahu’s right-wing Likud party, the other led by the centrist Yashar party of his main rival, Gadi Eisenkot – have reached the required 61-seat majority to form a government in Israel’s 120-seat parliament. CNN’s Nic Robertson reports.

Palestinian citizens of Israel – roughly 20 percent of the country’s population – turned out in record numbers at the polls this election. Many said they were driven by an urgent desire to topple Netanyahu’s right-wing coalition.
