Prime Minister Benjamin Netanyahu concluded his campaign Monday with warnings that Iran poses an existential threat to Israel should his political opponents win the upcoming election, Al-Monitor reported. Netanyahu's rhetoric centered on national security, framing the vote as a choice between his stewardship and potential catastrophe.
The claims marked a final push by Netanyahu ahead of the ballot, with Iran policy serving as a central campaign dividing line between his government and rival factions. The statement intensified an already contentious electoral period as voting day approached.
