Former Prime Minister Barak told Netanyahu that he was preparing for a war that could postpone the elections

Speaking to Israel's Channel 12 television, Barak said, "Netanyahu is preparing the infrastructure for entering a war that could postpone the elections." he said.

Barak stated that the Israeli Prime Minister "lied freely" and added that Netanyahu had previously said, "The life of a nation is not the personal survival of the prime minister." He reminded me of his promise.

Pointing to Netanyahu, Barak said, "We must do our best to ensure that he leaves power on October 27, never to return." he said.

Former Israeli Prime Minister Barak's statements come as Israel's elections are less than a month away and internal debates over the use of security issues in election campaigns are escalating.

Netanyahu, who fell behind in the public opinion polls, claimed that there were preparations for an external attack on his country before the general elections planned to be held on October 27 and that there were signs in this direction.

While the Israeli Prime Minister did not share information about who was responsible for the attack, the opposition considered the statement as a "political maneuver".
