Netanyahu's party claims Israel's election was stolen. Now what?
Tel Aviv — Prime Minister Benjamin Netanyahu and his Likud party alleged Thursday that Israel's election earlier in the week was stolen by Arab-majority parties, helped by foreign funding that amounted to vote-buying, as final results showed Netanyahu's bloc has lost its majority in Israel's parliament, the Knesset.Israel's Arab-majority parties had their highest turnout ever in Tuesday's election, winning an unprecedented 19 of the Knesset's 120 seats. Their success is one of the main reasons Netanyahu's bloc lost its majority and can't now form a new government.
Final election results show the far-right wing bloc's share of Knesset seats fell from 68 to 53.
Israel's Arab minority, also called Palestinian citizens of Israel, makes up about 20% of the country's population.
