Excerpt from France 24. Read the original report below for the complete story.Israel's opposition is on Tuesday due to meet for the first time since last week's closely contested election in which neither Gadi Eisenkot's change bloc nor incumbent Prime Minister Benjamin Netanyahu's right-wing alliance managed to win a majority in the Knesset.
