Several Israeli political parties have reported alleged irregularities during the ongoing elections and intend to file complaints with the Central Elections Committee. The "People of Israel" party, led by Ofer Winter, "Yisrael Beiteinu" led by Avigdor Lieberman, and "Yashar" led by Gadi Eisenkot, have all come forward with claims of violations at polling stations.

According to the "People of Israel" party, some polling stations were missing ballots marked with the Hebrew letter "Khet," while others were allegedly turned to appear blank. The party also reported an incident where a voter purportedly attempted to take all available ballots from a station.

"Yisrael Beiteinu" highlighted a significant incident in Beersheba, claiming a voter was given a partially opened envelope containing a "Likud" ballot. A party representative demanded this be officially recorded.

"Yashar" reported potential intentional damage and removal of ballots, as well as long queues in areas where the party has strong support. The party expressed concern that difficulties in accessing polling stations could suppress voter turnout.

All reported incidents require investigation. The article also notes related election news, including voter turnout figures, arrests for alleged voter bribery, and accusations of voter tracking.
