Moshe Feiglin, the leader of the far right Zehut party, has called for Israel to annul the election results and hold snap elections, with border police stationed outside polling stations where Palestinians are voting, Haaretz reports. In a video statement Feiglin said: "We cannot allow Qatar to take over our Knesset," after Israel’s Central Elections Committee called on Shin Bet to investigate allegations of foreign interference in the election. Qatar has issued a statement categorically denying the allegations, and condemning them as “yet another disinformation campaign aiming to drag Qatar into Israeli political disputes following this week’s elections". Feiglin also called for every voter at Palestinian polling stations to be checked, saying “that every woman wearing a burqa must remove her burqa" for verification.
