Election signs for the Religious Zionism party, displayed on private homes in Ramat Gan, were vandalized with stickers opposing Prime Minister Benjamin Netanyahu and Finance Minister Bezalel Smotrich. The incident occurred just one week before the elections. Unknown individuals affixed stickers bearing the images of Netanyahu and Smotrich, along with the slogan "No atonement for the financiers of Hamas, vote for change." These signs had been placed on the properties of families supporting the Religious Zionism party. The Deputy Mayor of Ramat Gan, Deputy Mayor of Ramat Gan, strongly condemned the act, stating, "Where is your liberalism? Shame on you! Disagreement, debate, and sharp criticism are possible, but vandalism, desecration, and disrespect are neither freedom of expression nor liberalism." the Deputy Mayor of Ramat Gan further emphasized that "democracy is tested by the ability to respect even those who think differently from us. Those who preach tolerance and pluralism, but cannot demonstrate them towards those with differing opinions, must conduct a soul-searching." He added that "Ramat Gan is a city for everyone, including those you disagree with." The defaced signs are part of an extensive ground campaign by the Religious Zionism party for the upcoming elections, which has seen thousands of signs posted nationwide with the slogan "Yes Smotrich" and the message "Don't make noise. Act."
