Israeli lawmakers have voted to dissolve parliament after Prime Minister Benjamin Netanyahu failed to form a coalition government.

The decision triggers a fresh election, to be held in September.

BBC reports Netanyahu was unable to reach a deal for a fresh right‑wing coalition following last month's election.

At the heart of the impasse was a military conscription bill governing exemptions for ultra‑Orthodox Jewish seminary students.
