Prime Minister Benjamin Netanyahu's Likud party accused Arab parties of allegedly stealing the Knesset election through widespread electoral fraud, bribery, intimidation, and ballot manipulation, according to the Jerusalem Post.

The report itself notes that the allegations have not been independently verified and that no evidence of systematic manipulation has been made public. Talal al-Krenawi called the accusations “disgusting” and “lies and falsehoods”. “This is incitement against the Bedouins,” he said, according to the newspaper.
