以色列右翼高层人物就阿拉伯选民、涉嫌窃取选举企图以及在加沙建立犹太人定居点的计划，发表了一系列挑衅性言论。
Senior figures on Israel’s right have made a series of provocative statements about Arab voters, alleged attempts to steal the election and plans to establish Jewish settlements in Gaza.
这些言论是在周二的选举期间以及出口民调显示总理本雅明·内塔尼亚胡的执政联盟遭遇挫折后发表的。
The remarks came during Tuesday’s election and after exit polls suggested Prime Minister Benjamin Netanyahu’s governing alliance had suffered a setback.
由于两大主要政治阵营均未获得明确多数，阿拉伯主导的政党可能在决定谁组建下届政府方面发挥重要作用。
With neither major political camp securing a clear majority Arab-led parties could play an important role in deciding who forms the next government.
周三早些时候，财政部长贝扎莱尔·斯莫特里希在耶路撒冷其所属的极右翼“宗教锡安主义党”竞选总部发表讲话，无视反对派的庆祝活动，承诺维持在被占约旦河西岸的定居点扩张，这些定居点依据国际法被视为非法。
Speaking early on Wednesday at his far-right Religious Zionism party’s election headquarters in Jerusalem, Finance Minister Bezalel Smotrich dismissed opposition celebrations and promised to preserve the expansion of settlements in the occupied West Bank, which are considered illegal under international law.
他表示，政治对手无法扭转政府的定居点“革命”，并宣称：“犹太人定居点将在加沙建立。”以色列于2005年拆除了其在加沙的定居点。
He said his political opponents would not reverse the government’s settlement “revolution”, declaring: “Jewish settlements will be established in Gaza.”Israel dismantled its settlements in Gaza in 2005.
周二早些时候，斯莫特里希在脸书上警告称，阿拉伯社区和左翼大本营的投票率异常高，但未提供支持数据。
Earlier on Tuesday, Smotrich warned on Facebook that voter turnout was unusually high in Arab communities and left-wing strongholds, without providing supporting figures.
他声称，若未能动员右翼选民，可能会让“恐怖主义支持者”进入政府。
He claimed that failing to mobilise right-wing voters could allow “terror supporters” to enter government.
领导右翼利库德集团的内塔尼亚胡在投票期间发出类似呼吁，警告阿拉伯选民正涌向投票站，反对派获胜将威胁以色列的犹太属性。
Netanyahu, who leads the right-wing Likud party, made similar appeals during voting, warning that Arab voters were rushing to polling stations and that an opposition victory would threaten Israel’s Jewish character.
他还指控阿拉伯占多数的“统一阿拉伯名单”（Ra’am）三名高层人物试图窃取选举。
He also accused three senior figures from Ra’am, an Arab-majority party, of attempting to steal the election.
警方证实，他们以涉嫌贿选为由逮捕了三人，但没有迹象表明这些人在“统一阿拉伯名单”中担任高层职务。
Police confirmed they arrested three people on suspicion of voter bribery, but there was no indication they held senior positions in Ra’am.
交通部长米里·雷格夫同样来自利库德集团，她周二在X平台上发帖，呼应了那些未经证实的选举舞弊指控。“他们试想从我们手中窃取选举和国家，”她说，“要么是右翼，要么是巴勒斯坦。”
Transportation Minister Miri Regev, also from Likud, echoed the unsubstantiated election theft allegations in a post on X on Tuesday. “They’re trying to steal the elections and the country from us,” she said“It’s either the right or Palestine.”
英美政治学家多夫·瓦克斯曼对半岛电视台表示，在选举结果无法定夺的情况下，内塔尼亚胡的计划很可能是向以色列公众“反复强调”这样一个信息：由阿拉伯政党组成的执政联盟是“不合法的”。
British-American political scientist Dov Waxman told Al Jazeera that Netanyahu’s plan after the inconclusive election result will likely be to “hammer home the message” to the Israeli public that a governing coalition that consists of Arab parties is “illegitimate”.
阿拉伯政治领袖谴责内塔尼亚胡在选举日的言论具有种族主义色彩且煽动性十足。
Arab political leaders condemned Netanyahu’s election-day messages as racist and inflammatory.
半岛电视台记者尼达·易卜拉欣从被占领的约旦河西岸城市拉马拉报道称，随着约55%的选票完成统计，内塔尼亚胡领导的右翼和宗教政党联盟预计将赢得56个席位，距离在以色列120席议会中获得61席多数门槛尚有差距。
Al Jazeera correspondent Nida Ibrahim, reporting from Ramallah in the occupied West Bank, said Netanyahu’s bloc of right-wing and religious parties was projected to win 56 seats, with about 55 percent of ballots counted, short of the 61 seats needed for a majority in Israel’s 120-seat parliament.
她表示，拉阿姆党领袖曼苏尔·阿巴斯声称，他收到了来自内塔尼亚胡的利库德集团和由前军方首长加迪·艾森科特领导的“雅沙尔党”领衔的反对派阵营的双重接触。
She said Mansour Abbas, the leader of Ra’am, claimed he had received approaches from both Netanyahu’s Likud and the opposition camp led by Gadi Eisenkot, a former military chief who heads the Yashar party.
