Yisrael Beiteinu Demands Netanyahu Remove AI-Generated Image of Liberman with Mansour Abbas

Yisrael Beiteinu has sent an urgent legal warning to the Likud party's legal advisor, demanding the immediate removal of a social media post shared on Prime Minister Benjamin Netanyahu's official accounts. The post features an AI-generated image depicting Yisrael Beiteinu leader Avigdor Liberman alongside Mansour Abbas, head of the Ra'am party, accompanied by the caption "There are things that cannot be hidden."

The party claims the post violates recent amendments to Israel's election law, which require clear disclosure when artificial intelligence technology is used. Yisrael Beiteinu described the publication as a serious breach, stating that although Netanyahu is "accustomed to fabrications," this instance constitutes a significant legal violation.

The party has demanded that Likud remove the image from all platforms under its control immediately. Should the post remain, Yisrael Beiteinu warned it will pursue legal action without further notice, including filing an urgent petition with the chairman of the Central Elections Committee.

This dispute highlights ongoing tensions between the parties ahead of elections and raises questions about the use of AI in political campaigning and compliance with election laws.
