The Shin Bet announced it has shut down networks attempting to interfere in Israel's upcoming elections. However, experts estimate that dozens, and possibly hundreds, of accounts remain active, aiming to deepen polarization and disrupt order within the country.
As the election date approaches, foreign influence networks are intensifying their efforts to meddle in the process by shaping discourse on social media. The objective of these networks is not to promote any particular political camp, but rather to exacerbate divisions and sow chaos before and potentially on election day.
