Qatar Denies Allegations of Interference in Israeli Knesset Elections

Qatar announced on Thursday its firm rejection of Israeli allegations accusing it of interfering in the Knesset elections, describing these claims as part of a new disinformation campaign. A statement from the spokesperson of the Qatari Ministry of Foreign Affairs, Majid Al-Ansari, addressed the campaign led by the Likud party under Benjamin Netanyahu, targeting Arab voters by alleging that Qatar funded efforts to increase voter turnout. Al-Ansari affirmed that Qatar categorically denies any interference or funding of activities aimed at influencing the results of the Israeli elections. He added that Qatar rejects the accusations promoted by some Israeli politicians and affiliated media outlets, noting that these claims are part of a disinformation campaign intended to drag Qatar's name into Israel's internal political conflicts.
