Israeli Prime Minister Benjamin Netanyahu addressed the Arab city of Tira, within the Green Line, in an effort to “address Arab voter friendliness” ahead of the elections, Israeli media reported.
During his visit, Netanyahu asked the citizens of the city to speed up the reception of the Corona vaccine in order to quickly return to normal life.
He said in Arabic: “Come, feed him. My goal is to reach 5.5 million who received the vaccine, and this is enough to finish it. The vaccines are enough for 9 million citizens, and the truth is that there will be more, I congratulate you for coming to receive the vaccine and I hope more will come. “
Netanyahu and his rival, Gideon Sa’ar, hope that their courtesy of the Arab community in Israel will result in a large turnout of them to vote in the legislative elections, which may favor the career of one of them.
A new poll conducted by the “Panels Politics” Institute and published by the “Maariv” newspaper on Friday, showed that the “Kahol Lavan” party, which won 33 seats in the last elections, has been eliminated and will not pass the electoral threshold, while the “Likud” party led by Netanyahu continues to lead by a wide margin. With 29 seats, Gideon Sa’ar’s “Tekfah Jadisha” party is the second largest party with 17 seats. The Yesh Atid party, led by Yair Lapid, won 14 seats, while the Joint List won only 11 seats.
