The Likud party has appealed to the Central Elections Committee, the Attorney General, and the Police Commissioner demanding an examination of concerns about harm to the purity of elections, following an expose by Channel 14 about the organization 'HaGidonim' of former Prime Minister Ehud Barak. The appeal was revealed in a video released by the party, in which Prime Minister Benjamin Netanyahu spoke with attorney Ilan Bombach. Bombach claimed that the 'HaGidonim' organization plans to bring hundreds of activists to vote counting areas and near the Knesset, with the aim of protesting and disrupting the counting of double envelopes. According to him, his appeals to official bodies were met with a lack of response. Netanyahu said the matter is 'very typical of Kaplan' and expressed expectation that law enforcement bodies would act to ensure the integrity of the elections. The original expose, published on Sunday, described a conference where Barak presented scenarios of election disruption, including blocking the Prime Minister's residence. The article presents only Likud's position, without a response from Ehud Barak or the 'HaGidonim' organization.
