Israel to hold elections on October 27, Knesset says Israel’s parliament will dissolve on July 17 and national elections will be held on October 27 as scheduled, according to Knesset Legal Adviser Sagit Afik. Times of Israel reported that the vote would mark Israel’s first election held on schedule since 1988 and make Prime Minister Benjamin Netanyahu’s government the first Israeli administration to complete a full term since 1973.
