Israeli Opposition Leader Warns Netanyahu Will Do Anything to Stay in Power Before Knesset Vote

haaretz.com —

Israeli Prime Minister Benjamin Netanyahu faces accusations from opposition leader Gadi Eisenkot, who warned at a final campaign rally that Netanyahu "will stop at nothing" to remain in power ahead of Tuesday's Knesset election. Netanyahu has ordered the military and Mossad to overthrow Iran's regime, while IDF officials fear he may strike Iran before the vote, causing tensions with military leadership. U.S. President Donald Trump endorsed Netanyahu, citing their "great relationship" and military successes against Iran. The Supreme Court banned polling station workers from sharing turnout data with parties, and Amcha Yisrael chairman Ofer Winter refused to drop out despite a campaign against his party. Netanyahu dismissed reports of conflict with IDF Chief of Staff Eyal Zamir as "nonsense."
