Netanyahu says ‘indications’ enemies will try to attack ahead of elections
He said enemies may try to disrupt the vote and warned Israel can strike adversaries anywhere.
- On Tuesday, Prime Minister Benjamin Netanyahu visited Tel Nof Air Force Base, warning that Israel has indications enemies may attempt an attack before the October 27 Knesset election, though he did not name any specific adversary or disclose underlying intelligence.
- Security concerns precede this public warning, as a classified Knesset intelligence subcommittee meeting in July identified election vulnerabilities, flagging potential foreign interference and risks of physical attacks on political figures.
- Opposition leader Yair Lapid requested an urgent security update, while Yashar party leader Gadi Eisenkot questioned the warning's legitimacy, stating it "requires an immediate update" to ensure it is not a "political maneuver" intended to manipulate the election.
- Netanyahu's office responded by instructing his military secretary to provide Lapid with a briefing on the latest developments, addressing opposition demands for transparency regarding the alleged security threat.
- Netanyahu is struggling to salvage his security credentials ahead of the vote, as analysts observe the election serves as a referendum on his leadership following the October 7, 2023, security failures that killed at least 8,920 people.
