Netanyahu Warns of PA 'Hamas Takeover' Ahead of Elections; IDF Unconfirmed

Two weeks before Israeli elections, PM Netanyahu warns of a potential 'Hamas takeover' of the Palestinian Authority, visiting the security fence and stating Israel is prepared for that scenario. The IDF has not confirmed an intelligence warning, but the Chief of Staff previously noted readiness for extreme scenarios. This rhetoric may signal pre-election positioning or genuine security concerns, with implications for regional stability.
