BBC: Israeli election: Netanyahu and Gantz both claim victory
Exit polls in Israel suggest there will be no clear winner in the closely fought general election.
The centrist Blue and White alliance of former military chief Benny Gantz was projected to win 36 or 37 seats, with the Likud party of Prime Minister Benjamin Netanyahu taking 33 to 36.
Both men have claimed victory.
