Likud Reportedly Organizes Teams to Film Voters Outside Arab Polling Stations

Likud has reportedly assembled paid, unofficial teams to film voters outside polling stations in Arab communities and send reports to party headquarters in real time. Unnamed party sources described preparations over recent weeks and an estimated cost of millions of shekels, separate from the party's representatives inside polling stations. Some unnamed officials said recordings could support fraud allegations if Likud suffers a substantial election defeat. There is no information showing Benjamin Netanyahu attended planning meetings, and his approval of the initiative has not been established.
