Israel did not provide evidence of external interference in the elections.
Israel's General Security Service (Israeli Security Service) failed to provide evidence of external interference in the election through cash injections, The Times of Israel reported Monday, citing senior law enforcement officials.
In November, state broadcaster Cannes reported that the Shin Bet reported to the Central Election Commission about the progress of the investigation into alleged foreign interference in the recent parliamentary elections, claiming that large sums of money flowed into Israel from foreign countries to influence the elections.
"The Shin Bet failed to provide any evidence to support suspicions of a campaign of foreign interference in the last election," the report said, according to a report released Monday and citing senior law enforcement officials.
The publication states that the researchers are currently examining a possible transfer of no more than a few tens of thousands of dollars to Arab parties by the Palestinian National Authority. However, despite interviewing dozens of people, no evidence was ever found to support this claim.
