The election crisis is growing in Israel: The election committee rejects Likud's 'cheating' allegations!

According to the unconfirmed results of the parliamentary elections held in Israel on October 27, the Joint List led by Yusuf Jabbarin, representing Palestinians with Israeli citizenship, and the United Arab List (Raam Party) of Mansur Abbas gained a total of 19 deputies and occupied a key position in the Israeli Parliament.

After the Arab parties reached such a high number of seats, the ruling bloc of Benjamin Netanyahu, which gained 53 seats, and the opposition bloc, led by Gadi Eisenkot, which remained at 48 seats, do not have the possibility of forming a government on their own.

Speaking to Yedioth Ahronoth newspaper, senior Likud officials stated that they would initiate legal proceedings regarding some suspicious ballot boxes, following allegations that funds were transferred from abroad to the Joint List and Raam Party, which represents Palestinian Israeli citizens, for the purpose of interfering in the elections.

Likud officials believe that the materials they will present to the Central Election Committee will be sufficient to renew elections in ballot boxes they consider suspicious.

Raam Party leader Mansur Abbas rejected the allegations that "funds were transferred from abroad to his party for the purpose of interfering with the elections" and said, "Raam has nothing to do with the issue in question or any other similar issue." he said.

'LIKUD'S CLAIMS HAVE NO BASIS'

The Israeli Central Election Committee announced that the Likud Party's claims that the elections were "stolen by Arab parties" have no basis.

"To the best of our knowledge, there is no basis for allegations of systematic breaches of election security," the committee said in a statement. The statement was included.

Likud claimed that there were irregularities in the elections and that hundreds of statements and evidence were submitted to the police, the Israeli Internal Security Organization (Shin Bet) and the Central Election Committee regarding the allegation that votes were stolen in many ballot boxes in areas where Palestinians live heavily.

BEN-GRIV REQUESTED DETENTION

It was reported that Central Election Committee Chairman Noam Solberg requested Shin-Bet Director David Zini to investigate the allegations.

Far-right National Security Minister Ben-Gvir, one of the leading figures behind the policy of systematic oppression and violence against Palestinians, had asked Shin-Bet to detain the leaders of the Joint List and Raam Party.

Israeli police announced in a written statement yesterday that there was no intelligence data supporting Likud's claim that "Arab parties stole the elections".
