Israeli elections have wrapped up, and the results are still coming in. But one thing is clear: Prime Minister Benjamin Netanyahu has pulled off a remarkable comeback, defying predictions that he'd be ousted. Fox News Radio's Eben Brown breaks down the intricacies of Israel's unique electoral system. Netanyahu's party, Likud, has secured the most votes, but it's not enough for a majority. The Netanyahu bloc, comprising other parties that join forces with him, has around 54-55 seats, which might just be enough for the president to invite him to form a government. This sets the stage for some serious wheeling and dealing.

US military is preparing our major bases to be able to survive for 90 days without relying on the civilian power grid, global supply chains, or outside fuel or water. This initiative, known as FORTRESS, aims to make every installation self-sufficient in case of an emergency.

The directive, as reported by FOX News Radio's Eben Brown, requires bases to have a stockpile of essential supplies, including electricity, food, water, medicine, ammunition, and communication equipment. The FORTRESS initiative is a response to the growing need for military readiness, particularly in light of recent conflicts and natural disasters.
