Prime Minister Benjamin Netanyahu is pressing for victory in Tuesday's general election despite facing corruption charges and a deeply fractured political landscape, The Guardian reported. The longtime leader has dominated Israeli politics for three decades and has put rivals on the defensive ahead of the vote, commanding strong support among his base.
The election comes as Israel remains polarized over multiple issues, with Netanyahu's legal troubles overshadowing the campaign. His Likud party is competing against a fragmented opposition unable to mount a unified challenge to his political dominance.
