Israel’s election commission rejected Prime Minister Netanyahu’s allegations of voting fraud and announced that no irregularities were found in last week’s ballot, a decision reported by the AP and The Guardian. At the same time, Shin Bet withdrew its request to interrogate Arab MKs in the election interference probe, and a court ordered the unconditional release of the final detainee in the alleged Ra’am vote‑buying case, as noted by The Times of Israel.

Following those rulings, the Likud party has moved to postpone certification of the election results while an interference investigation proceeds, keeping the certification timeline in question. The commission’s clearance and the Shin Bet retreat leave the legal and procedural landscape unsettled, with the delay request awaiting judicial consideration.
