Netanyahu says ‘indications’ enemies will try to attack ahead of elections

Netanyahu said Israel has indications enemies may try to attack before the election, while warning that the military can strike adversaries far beyond its borders.

  • Prime Minister Benjamin Netanyahu is employing long-standing campaign tactics to retain power in next month's election, positioning himself as the only leader capable of keeping Israelis safe in a hostile region.
  • Four weeks before the election, Netanyahu struggles to salvage security credentials shattered by the October 7, 2023, surprise attack on southern Israel that occurred on his watch, one of the country's worst security breaches.
  • Netanyahu's main rival, former military chief Gadi Eisenkot, leads the new centrist party Yashar, while the prime minister's campaign has intensified attacks portraying Eisenkot as aligned with Arab party leaders since Saturday.
  • During his address to the United Nations General Assembly last week, Netanyahu mounted a forceful defense of Israel's regional actions, yet faced diplomatic isolation as dozens of delegates walked out during his speech.
  • Political analyst Amotz Asa-El suggests Netanyahu's strategy aims to win enough support to prevent an alternative government, potentially leading to a stalemate that leaves him as interim prime minister en route to another election.
