According to a Likud statement, the Arab parties, which received a record number of votes in Tuesday’s elections, allegedly achieved their success through “the serious crimes of bribery, intimidation, violence, forgery and the illegal use of software to mobilize voters,” The Times of Israel reports.
Likud is demanding “a thorough investigation” as a result.
A representative of the country’s Central Elections Committee (CEC) dismissed allegations of election fraud in an interview with Israel’s Channel 12 earlier on Wednesday.
Netanyahu reiterated on several occasions during the election campaign that he considers cooperation with Arab parties illegitimate.
