The Likud party announced on Tuesday that it has submitted 775 formal complaints to the Central Elections Committee, alleging widespread irregularities and attempted fraud in polling stations within the Arab sector. These claims come amidst high voter turnout figures reported in the Arab community.

Sagi Keizler, who manages election integrity for the Likud party, stated that the Elections Committee is "ignoring" the issues and prioritizing a high voting pace over ensuring proper election procedures are followed according to law. The party's complaints reportedly detail "malicious conduct" and attempts at manipulation at the ballot boxes.

The allegations surface just hours before polling stations were set to close, with record turnout numbers being reported.
