- Netanyahu and his allies alleged that Arab voters stole last month’s Israeli election, centering the fraud accusation on Arab turnout.
- Election officials said that, while foul play was being investigated, it could not have affected last month’s Israeli election result, undercutting the allies’ claim.
Why it matters: Netanyahu’s allies lack election-official support for treating the alleged fraud as outcome-changing; in the separate AP News coverage, Arab parties are presented as a bloc trying to topple him after last month’s Israeli election, although their effort continues to face challenges.
