Prime Minister Benjamin Netanyahu initiated what he termed an "emergency broadcast" on the social media platform TikTok. During the broadcast, Channel 12 reporter Orel Nissan responded to the prime minister, stating, "It won't work for you." Nissan also posted several other messages, including "Go abroad," "State commission of inquiry," and "Streaming to the ballot boxes 2."

The exchange occurred on TikTok, a platform popular with younger audiences, where political figures increasingly engage with the public. Nissan's comments suggest a critical stance towards Netanyahu's attempt to connect with viewers via the platform, implying a lack of effectiveness and potentially alluding to political challenges or public sentiment.
