以色列中央选举委员会主席诺姆·索尔伯格表示，即使外国干预的指控得到证实，该国大选结果依然有效。
The head of Israel’s elections commission has said the results of the country’s general election would still stand even if claims of foreign interference were substantiated.
索尔伯格周日在一段视频中表示：“我们的立场是，即使嫌疑得到证实，也不会损害选举程序的完整性或整体选举结果。”视频中，他与以色列内部安全机构辛贝特负责人以及检察长一同出镜。
“Our position is that even if the suspicions are substantiated, this would not undermine the integrity of the electoral process or the election results as a whole,” Central Elections Committee head Noam Sohlberg said in a video on Sunday, in which he appeared with the head of the Shin Bet, Israel’s internal security agency, and the attorney general. Prime Minister Benyamin Netanyahu’s Likud party had questioned the results after saying, without providing evidence, that Arab-led parties, which made significant gains in Tuesday’s elections, “stole” the vote and accepted funding from Qatar to do it.
总理本雅明·内塔尼亚胡领导的利库德集团曾对选举结果提出质疑，声称阿拉伯主导的政党在周二的选举中取得显著进展，这些政党“窃取”了选票，并接受卡塔尔资金以此行事，但未提供证据。卡塔尔驳斥了这些指控，称其为一场虚假信息运动。
Qatar has rejected the allegations calling it a disinformation campaign. Also on Sunday, Israeli police released two out of three political activists arrested before Tuesday’s polls opened.
同样在周日，以色列警方释放了周二投票开始前被捕的三名政治活动人士中的两人。警方称，他们携带装有现金的信封，涉嫌贿赂选民。一人在未公开的条件下获释，另一人被勒令居家监禁。
They were carrying envelopes of cash, allegedly to bribe voters, police said. One was released on unspecified conditions, while another was ordered to remain on house arrest. Police said the suspects were connected to the Arab-led Ra’am party, which won eight seats.
警方称，嫌疑人与阿拉伯主导的拉姆党有关联，该党赢得了八个席位。
Its leader, Mansour Abbas, denounced the arrests as undemocratic and “an attempt to influence the election results”.
该党领导人曼苏尔·阿巴斯谴责这些逮捕行动不民主，是“试图影响选举结果”。“精心策划和组织的运动”主要反对派领导人艾森科特周日指责内塔尼亚胡发动了一场“精心策划和组织的运动，旨在使选举结果失去合法性”。
‘Orchestrated and organised campaign’Main opposition leader Eisenkot on Sunday accused Netanyahu of launching an “orchestrated and organised campaign to delegitimise the results”.
艾森科特此前曾排除与阿拉伯政党组建联合政府的可能性，但周二选举出现僵局，与这些政党合作可能助他组建政府。
Eisenkot has previously ruled out forming a coalition with Arab parties, but a deadlock in Tuesday’s elections means siding with the parties could help him form a government.
内塔尼亚胡阵营在周二选举中赢得53个席位，由加迪·艾森科特领导的反对派阵营赢得48个席位，这意味着在以色列120席的议会中，任何一方都无法单独组建政府。
Netanyahu’s bloc won 53 seats in Tuesday’s elections, while the opposition bloc, led by Gadi Eisenkot, won 48, meaning neither side can form a government in Israel’s 120-seat parliament alone.
以色列三个阿拉伯主导的政党，包括拉姆党，共赢得创纪录的19个席位。
Israel’s three Arab-led parties, including the Ra’am party, won a record 19 seats.
如果艾森科特加入，阿拉伯政党联盟将在议会中拥有 67 个席位的舒适多数。然而，对许多以色列人来说，与阿拉伯政党结盟在政治上难以接受。
A coalition of Arab parties with Eisenkot would provide a comfortable majority of 67 in parliament. However, for many in Israel, the idea of siding with Arab parties is politically unpalatable.
官方认证结果预计将于本周出炉，随后总统伊萨克·赫尔佐格必须提名一名候选人组建新政府。
The results are due to be officially certified this week, after which President Isaac Herzog must nominate a candidate to form a new government.
