Prime Minister Benjamin Netanyahu says he has given up his efforts to form a government.
Benjamin Netanyahu is the longest serving leader of Israel.
He’s been in office twice — his second stint lasting more than a decade.
Some, have even called him the Magician of Israeli politics.
But he’s been unable to convince his rivals to join him and form a coalition government.
The Prime minister’s setback is an opportunity for the leader of the opposition Blue and White Party Benny Gants, to form a coalition of his own.
But this doesn’t mean Netanyahu is out completely.
So, how will this play out?
