Israelis are voting in a general election, with polls suggesting Prime Minister Benjamin Netanyahu is neck and neck with former army chief Gadi Eisenkot. Around 70,000 citizens reportedly flew home to take part, and half a million people are voting for the first time. Neither bloc is expected to reach a 61-seat majority, so lengthy coalition talks could follow. Exit polls are due at 8pm.
