National Security Minister Itamar Ben-Gvir called on Wednesday for the arrest and investigation of Arab party leaders, citing Shin Bet (Israel Security Agency) allegations of foreign interference and funding in elections. Ben-Gvir urged Shin Bet head David Zini to act immediately, even without the approval of Attorney General Gali Baharav-Miara, to detain the leaders and freeze the confirmation of election results and government formation.
Ben-Gvir stated that the Shin Bet had revealed suspicions of foreign funding and election interference involving vast sums and thousands of individuals. He insisted that the elections were "stolen" and that the truth must be fully uncovered, despite assurances from the Chairman of the Central Elections Committee, Noam Solberg, that the suspicions had been examined and no election fraud was suspected.
