以色列前总理埃胡德·巴拉克周五指责总理本雅明·内塔尼亚胡“为战争奠定基础”，此举可能致使原定于10月27日举行的大选推迟。
Former Israeli Premier Ehud Barak accused on Friday Prime Minister Benjamin Netanyahu of “laying the groundwork” for a war that could delay the general elections on Oct. 27.
巴拉克对第12频道表示：“内塔尼亚胡正在为发动战争做准备，其方式很可能会推迟选举。”
“Netanyahu is preparing the infrastructure to go to war in a way that would postpone the elections,” Barak told Channel 12.
巴拉克严厉批评内塔尼亚胡，称其“说谎如同呼吸一般自然，连吃薯条时和离开餐厅不付账时也在说谎”。他还强调：“我们必须竭尽全力在10月27日彻底把他赶下台。”此番言论正值以色列国内围绕“将安全问题用于竞选”的争论日益激烈之际。
Barak sharply criticized Netanyahu, saying he “lies as he breathes, as he eats French fries, and as he leaves a restaurant without paying.”Barak said “we must do everything to remove him from power on Oct. 27, once and for all.”His remarks come amid an intensifying domestic debate about the use of security issues in the election campaign.
本周早些时候，内塔尼亚胡曾警告称，大选前以色列可能遭遇袭击，他还与高级安全官员就多个战线的局势发展进行了磋商。
Netanyahu warned earlier this week that Israel could face attacks ahead of the election, and also held consultations with senior security officials on developments on several fronts.
针对9月30日迪拜飞往特拉维夫的迪拜航空FZ1073航班事件，内塔尼亚胡也威胁将对幕后策划者实施报复。他表示，目前调查正在进行，以确认肇事者是否受他人指使；并强调：“指使他的人必将付出沉重代价。”由于反对派指责内塔尼亚胡借安全问题巩固自身竞选优势，该航班事件也已成为竞选焦点。
He has also threatened retaliation against anyone found to have been behind an incident involving Flydubai flight FZ1073 from Dubai to Tel Aviv on Sept. 30. He said an investigation is underway to determine whether the perpetrator acted on instructions from another party, and that “whoever sent him will pay a very heavy price.”The Flydubai incident has become an election campaign issue amid accusations by his opponents that he is exploiting security issues to bolster his position in the campaign.
当前，以色列军队仍在加沙地带、黎巴嫩和叙利亚等多个战线上开展军事行动。今年8月，巴拉克就曾指责内塔尼亚胡试图在安全局势紧张、民众恐慌情绪高涨的状态下举行大选，认为部分地区的局势升级与选举考量密切相关。
Barak’s comments also come as Israeli military operations continue on several fronts, including the Gaza Strip, Lebanon and Syria. In August, Barak accused Netanyahu of seeking to reach Election Day amid heightened security tension and public fear, arguing that escalation on some regional fronts is linked to electoral considerations.
此次大选将是2023年10月7日事件后以色列举行的首次全国选举。各反对党正加强协作，力图通过投票推翻内塔尼亚胡领导的政府。
The election will be Israel’s first general vote since the Oct. 7, 2023 events. Opposition parties have intensified coordination in an effort to replace Netanyahu’s government through the ballot box.
