Likud files petition demanding Eisenkot's Yashar remove anti-Netanyahu campaign ads

Likud claims the videos present journalistic sources and Netanyahu’s remarks in a partial and misleading manner, amounting to “unfair interference” with the party’s election campaign.

The Likud party has filed a petition with Israel's Supreme Court, demanding that Gadi Eisenkot and his Yashar party remove three election campaign videos. The videos, posted on Eisenkot's social media accounts, allegedly manipulate content from journalists and Prime Minister Benjamin Netanyahu to present a biased perspective against Likud.

Likud contends that the videos misrepresent statements and timelines, creating an "alternative reality" that unfairly interferes with their election campaign. The party seeks an immediate removal of the videos and an interim order requiring their removal while the case is under consideration.
