Netanyahu attempts scare tactics in new video
9 April 2019 13:12 BST
Benjamin Netanyahu has fired his first online salvo of polling day.
In a video posted on Twitter, the prime minister alleges that he has a recording of representatives from Gantz's Blue and White and the Labor party hatching a plan to include Palestinian parties in a future "left-wing government".
"Only Likud can stop this deal," the premier says. "Don’t stay home, don’t stay on the beaches. Vote to stop a left-wing government."
The video then plays the alleged recording.
In 2015, an online address by Netanyahu saying Arabs were voting in their "droves" helped swing the election decisively in his favour.
