以色列总统以撒克·赫佐格在周二召开第26届议会新一届议程的演说中，敦促立法者“不遗余力”，就哈马斯发动的10月7日袭击事件展开调查，此前选举使总理本雅明·内塔尼亚胡的阵营未能获得多数席位。
Israeli President Isaac Herzog has urged lawmakers to “leave no stone unturned” and launch an investigation into the October 7 attacks by Hamas in a speech opening the new parliamentary session, after the election left Prime Minister Benjamin Netanyahu’s bloc short of a majority.
赫佐格在新当选议员宣誓就职时，呼吁各党派领导人“作出让步”，并“尽一切可能避免再次举行选举”。
Herzog called on party leaders to “make concessions” and do “everything possible to avoid a repeat election” at the swearing-in of newly elected members in the 26th Knesset on Tuesday.
以色列总统周日指定反对派领导人加迪·艾森科特组建下一届政府，为他组建联合政府启动了28天的期限，并可能延长14天。
The Israeli president tasked opposition leader Gadi Eisenkot with forming the country’s next government on Sunday, starting the clock for him to cobble together a coalition within 28 days, with a possible 14-day extension.
艾森科特及其盟友同样未能获得议会多数席位，但他们希望利用新获得的立法权力，迅速成立一个独立调查委员会，调查10月7日的袭击事件。
While also short of a parliamentary majority, Eisenkot and his allies hope to use their newfound legislative power to move rapidly to establish an independent inquiry into the October 7 attacks.
“我承诺，在这个复杂局势下，尽快组建一支国家紧急政府，”艾森科特在议会会议开始前表示。
“I am committed in this complex situation to form a national emergency government as quickly as possible,” Eisenkot said, ahead of the Knesset session.
内塔尼亚胡此前拒绝成立委员会调查袭击事件，理由是由以色列最高法院任命的委员会会对政府存有偏见。
Netanyahu has previously refused to form a commission to investigate the attacks, arguing that a panel appointed by the Israeli Supreme Court would be biased against the government.
关于伊朗，赫佐格在演说中表示，德黑兰“在其阴谋和威胁方面，无论是直接还是通过其伙伴，一刻也没有停止”，重申了他在正式指定艾森科特组建新政府时的讲话内容。
On Iran, Herzog said in his speech that Tehran “does not stop even for a moment in its plots and threats, whether directly or through its partners”, repeating the notion from his speech officially delegating Eisenkot to form the new government.
赫佐格表示，由于美国公众对以色列的不满情绪日益高涨——原因是加沙的种族灭绝战争以及美以针对伊朗的战争——以色列“必须巩固”与美国的联盟。
The president said Israel “must fortify the alliance” with the United States amid increasing disapproval of Israel among the US public due to the genocidal war on Gaza and the US-Israel war on Iran.
“在与那些试图伤害我们的人进行顽强而坚决的战争的同时，我们必须与邻国在该地区建立一个稳定的政治前景，”他表示，并补充说，以色列必须“加强甚至扩大与埃及、约旦、摩洛哥、阿联酋和巴林的和平协议”。
“Alongside the stubborn and determined war against those who seek to harm us, we must build a stable political horizon in the region with our neighbours,” he said, adding that Israel must “strengthen and even add to the peace agreements with Egypt, Jordan, Morocco, the United Arab Emirates, and Bahrain”.
议会僵局 议长、内塔尼亚胡所属利库德集团成员将继续担任看守议长，直至举行新一轮投票。
Political gridlock The speaker of the Knesset, a member of Netanyahu’s Likud Party, will remain in the caretaker position until a new vote is held.
“艾森科特所属的‘亚沙尔’党已提交61名新任议员的签名，要求尽快举行投票，”半岛电视台记者努尔·奥代在被占领的约旦河西岸报道称。
“Yashar, Eisenkot’s party, has already submitted 61 signatures of new parliamentarians demanding that the vote take place as soon as possible,” said Al Jazeera’s Nour Odeh, reporting from the occupied West Bank.
内塔尼亚胡及其阵营继续抗议10月27日选举结果，在巴以政党获得19席组成集团后，声称存在外国干涉。
Netanyahu and his bloc continue to protest the result of the October 27 elections, claiming foreign interference after Palestinian-Israeli parties secured a 19-seat bloc.
奥代说：“这些抗议未获回应，因为结果已获认证，每个相关机构都驳回了存在大规模违规的指控。”
“Those protests have gone unanswered because the results have been certified and every relevant authority has dismissed the allegations that there were widespread violations,” Odeh said.
艾森科特尚未与能使其达到组阁所需61席多数的政党达成协议。若艾森科特与内塔尼亚胡均无法组建联合政府，可能将迎来另一轮选举。
Eisenkot has yet to strike deals with parties that could bring him to the 61-seat majority needed to form a government. If neither Eisenkot nor Netanyahu forms a coalition, another round of elections could follow.
