Quick Hits: Today’s Top Stories

• Israeli opposition leader Yair Lapid told President Reuven Rivlin yesterday that he had successfully brokered an agreement among an ideologically diverse group of lawmakers to form a governing coalition and oust longtime Prime Minister Benjamin Netanyahu. Isaac Herzog, a former chairman of Israel’s center-left Labour Party, was elected Tuesday to succeed Rivlin next month and become the 11th President of Israel.
