Israel Police rejected Likud's claims that the election had been "stolen" on Thursday morning, stating that there was no investigative or intelligence evidence to support the allegations.
"Election day passed with a small number of unusual incidents concerning electoral integrity, even compared with previous elections. It should be emphasized that there is no investigative or intelligence evidence to support the claims," the police said in a Thursday statement.
On Wednesday, Likud accused Arab parties of allegedly stealing Israel's Knesset election through widespread electoral fraud, bribery, intimidation, and ballot manipulation, and demanded an immediate investigation by law enforcement authorities.
"The elections in the State of Israel were stolen by Arab parties that support terrorism and the destruction of the Jewish state through serious criminal offenses involving bribery, threats, violence, forgery, and the use of prohibited software to mobilize voters," the party said.
This is a developing story.
