On March 23, Israel faces its fourth election in two years, after Prime Minister Benjamin Netanyahu's coalition with Benny Gantz's Blue and White party collapsed after just seven months. Current polling suggests neither of Israel's major political blocs can secure enough votes to form a majority.


In this episode of World Review from the New Statesman, Alona Ferber joins Jeremy Cliffe and Ido Vock to discuss Israel's complex political landscape, and ask whether anything might swing voters enough to deliver a clear election result.
