Israeli officials say results stand as Netanyahu claims election ‘stolen’

The head of Israel’s elections commission has said the results of the country’s general election would still stand even if claims of foreign interference were substantiated. “Our position is that even if the suspicions are substantiated, this would not undermine the integrity of the electoral process or the election results as a whole,” Central Elections Committee head Noam Sohlberg said in a video on Sunday, in which he appeared with the head of the Shin Bet, Israel’s internal security agency, and the attorney general.
