Israeli election bribery probe ‘limited’ and won't affect results, Shin Bet sources say

The investigation into suspected Israeli election fraud is limited in scope and unlikely to affect the results, security sources and a senior election official said on Thursday. Israel’s domestic intelligence agency, Shin Bet, said in an official statement that the investigation was “targeted and limited”. Channel 12 quoted agency sources as saying the matter under investigation could not affect the election results. Separately, Dean Livne, acting director general of the Central Elections Committee, said there was “no basis for allegations of systematic violations of election integrity”.
