Israel's election commission says no fraud found in last week's vote

Israel's election commission confirmed no fraud occurred in the recent elections, countering Prime Minister Netanyahu's claims of election theft by Arab-led parties. The commission's review found no evidence of irregularities affecting the results, which showed Netanyahu's bloc losing its majority while Arab parties gained seats. An ongoing investigation by Shin Bet into foreign interference continues. Following the certification of results, President Isaac Herzog will consult with elected parties to determine who can form a coalition government. Neither Netanyahu nor opposition leader Gadi Eisenkot secured a majority, raising the possibility of alliances or new elections if no government is formed.
