Netanyahu Warns of Election-Eve Attacks by Israel's Enemies
Prime Minister Benjamin Netanyahu stated Tuesday that there are indications Israel's enemies may attempt to attack the country in the lead-up to the upcoming elections, scheduled in about two weeks. Speaking during a visit to the Tel Nof Air Force base, Netanyahu issued a stern warning: "Don't mess with us, not now and not ever. Our long arm will reach you anywhere, anytime."
The Prime Minister did not specify which adversaries he was referring to or the nature of the intelligence prompting his warning. This statement follows a similar warning issued by Netanyahu on September 6, which directly addressed Iran. At a Rosh Hashanah event, he noted that while Iran was currently refraining from attacking Israel, it could make a mistake and choose to do so, in which case it would "absorb a blow it cannot even imagine."
The current warning explicitly links potential aggression to the pre-election period, adding a political dimension to ongoing security concerns that accompany Israel's election cycles.
