Final polls put the blocs led by Benjamin Netanyahu and former IDF chief Gadi Eisenkot on around 50 seats each, short of the 61 needed to govern. On the eve of Tuesday's vote, Avigdor Lieberman demanded a treason investigation over reports that Netanyahu reportedly pushed for action against Iran. Netanyahu's office dismissed the report as 'fake news'. Donald Trump has urged Israelis to re-elect him to 'finish the job'.

Eisenkot, whose son was killed in Gaza, warned: 'Netanyahu, my eyes are on you.'

Arab parties, tipped to win at least 13 seats, could decide who governs Israel.

Netanyahu, who is on trial for corruption he denies, is chasing a seventh term.
