High turnout and growing tensions in Israel's Knesset elections According to Jamaran from the Palestinian Information Center, Israel's Knesset elections continue while reports indicate a high turnout, long lines in front of the polling stations, and increasing tensions and allegations of attempts to disrupt the election process. The deputy director general of the Central Election Commission announced that the long lines in front of the polling stations are due to a large turnout, and if there is a line after 10:00 p.m., the polling stations will continue to operate and all people who stand in line before that time will be able to vote. By noon, participation had reached 31.5 percent. At the same time, the Election Commission is examining ways to reduce overcrowding in the polling stations. Reports in Hebrew also reported a high participation in funds in Arab regions and a significant uptake in the Negev and Nazareth. A reporter from the "Macan" network announced that the participation rate in the Arab community is about 25%. Some preliminary estimates by the Hebrew media indicate that if the current trend continues, the final participation may reach 74-75%; While the participation rate in the previous elections was 70.63 percent. Also, some preliminary analyzes talked about the possibility that Arab lists would win 17 to 19 mandates. In Acre, Palestinian women and girls confronted a number of extreme right-wing activists who tried to disrupt the election process and pushed them away from the polling stations. The head of the Shin Bet also announced that there are people trying to disrupt the elections and this organization is trying to prevent such actions. Independent reports were also published about the presence of the head of the Shin Bet in the command center of the election committee and the review of the election process. Meanwhile, Naftali Bennett, former prime minister of Israel and head of the "Together" party, while in Tel Aviv, asked his supporters to participate in the elections. "Gadi Eisenkot" also said during his visit to Holon: "Tomorrow morning Israel will make fateful decisions in all fields."
