Israeli Prime Minister Benjamin Netanyahu said Wednesday that he harbors serious suspicions about foreign money being funneled into Israel's recent parliamentary election in an effort to sway the outcome, according to France 24.
Netanyahu did not name a specific country or group behind the alleged interference, but the claim adds a new layer of controversy to the already contested election results. France 24 reports the remarks came as scrutiny of the vote's integrity continues in Israeli political circles.
No evidence was presented publicly alongside the accusation, and it remains unclear whether Israeli authorities will launch a formal investigation into the claims.
