President Reuven Rivlin on Wednesday afternoon concluded consultations on who to task next with forming a new government, with Yesh Atid chair Yair Lapid emerging as the likely candidate.
Prime Minister Benjamin Netanyahu s deadline for forming a government expired on midnight, with the country s longest-serving prime minister having failed to break more than two years of political deadlock.

United Torah Judaism, an ultra-Orthodox party, released an election campaign video Tuesday night that seemingly compares people who convert to Judaism through non-Orthodox denominations to dogs wearing kippot.
The video, published online, drew condemnation from opposition leader MK Yair Lapid, who said that with this message, UTJ had joined the ranks of anti-Semites who often compare Jews to dogs.
The campaign video was released after the High Court of Justice ruled earlier this week that Reform and Conservative conversions to Judaism conducted in Israel would be recognized for citizenship purposes. The decision, which dents the Orthodox monopoly on religion in Israel, was widely condemned by ultra-Orthodox lawmakers, who vowed to pass a law to overturn it.
