Just hours before the polls open, the 'Amcha Yisrael' party reports an aggressive and well-timed cyberattack against it. According to the party's statement, several candidates and senior campaign officials were blocked from using the WhatsApp application after their personal phone numbers were attacked using foreign numbers. The party sees this as part of a 'violent campaign' aimed at disabling the party's operations on election day, noting that it joins the use of private investigators, placing signs in front of candidates' homes, and cynical exploitation of bereaved families. Despite the incident, the party emphasizes that campaign activities continue as usual thanks to advance preparations that included purchasing alternative phones, and that it has contacted the relevant authorities.
