Shin Bet chief David Zini is scheduled to present classified information tomorrow to a Knesset subcommittee regarding indications of foreign interference in Israel's upcoming elections, according to a report by Kan News. The discussion will take place within the Intelligence Subcommittee of the Foreign Affairs and Defense Committee, which has invited representatives from the security services to address attempts by hostile countries to influence the electoral process.
Noam Solberg, Deputy President of the Supreme Court and chairman of the Elections Committee, is also expected to attend the session. Zini will provide data on the Shin Bet's capabilities to monitor covert political funding flows within Israel. Previous briefings from the National Cyber Directorate have already revealed signs of interference attempts.

Herzog emphasized that elections are a critical test of Israeli democracy and social cohesion, urging citizens to participate responsibly and cautioning against spreading misinformation on social media. He also condemned political violence and called on all public figures and candidates to avoid crossing red lines and turning rivals into enemies.
