Yair Netanyahu, son of Israeli Prime Minister Benjamin Netanyahu, portrayed Arab parties as a threat to the country’s future in a social-media post. His comparison with Iran’s nuclear programme was a political allegation.

The Anadolu-sourced report gives Netanyahu’s bloc 53 seats, the opposition led by Gadi Eisenkot 48, and Arab parties a combined 19 after the 27 October election.

A majority requires 61 seats in the 120-member Knesset. With neither main bloc reaching that threshold alone, Arab parties’ positions matter in coalition negotiations.
