Israel's intelligence agency, Mossad, has reportedly joined the Shin Bet in investigating allegations that Türkiye and Qatar interfered in Israel's recent election to boost Arab parties, contributing to Prime Minister Benjamin Netanyahu's coalition losing its parliamentary majority, according to Israeli outlet Ynetnews.
According to the report, Israeli intelligence officials suspect Qatar of transferring substantial sums of money into Israel, allegedly in support of Arab political parties which secured a historic 19 seats in the election.
Qatar has denied the allegations. Qatari Foreign Ministry spokesperson Majed Al-Ansari dismissed the claims as a disinformation campaign.
"They accused us of buying Netanyahu, the left wing, and now the Arab vote. If all these allegations were true, it would appear that Qatar owns all of Israel," he said sarcastically.
