Barak warns of possible settler violence disrupting elections
Former Israeli Prime Minister Ehud Barak warned of the possibility of a major terrorist attack carried out by settlers against Palestinians in the West Bank, which could lead to a wide security escalation in the region. He pointed out that some government ministers are encouraging these attacks, while others are turning a blind eye, stressing that a minor incident could trigger extensive violence and disrupt the election process. He also confirmed that the Palestinian Authority is cooperating with the Israeli security agency Shin Bet to thwart Palestinian attacks, and that the current political crisis is fueling the risks of escalation. There are growing fears that Netanyahu might use all available means to stay in power, including investigations and serious accusations if he loses the upcoming elections.
