JERUSALEM - Israeli ruling coalition's decision on Monday to dissolve the parliament and hold early elections has led the country into a three-month rocky election campaign, as incumbent Prime Minister Benjamin Netanyahu is under investigation over corruption allegations.

A decision by the Israeli attorney general on whether to indict Netanyahu is looming, although no specific date has been set.

Heads of Netanyahu's six coalition parties issued a statement on Monday, saying they "unanimously agreed" to dissolve the Knesset and call for early elections.
