What the coverage shows
All outlets frame the story around a tight Israeli election and the race for a 61-seat majority, with most saying Netanyahu is still short of it or that the result is undecided.

NPR foregrounds record turnout, and The Guardian US and Al Jazeera uniquely emphasize the surge in Palestinian or Arab turnout and its possible role in coalition talks.
