Israeli affairs expert Khalil Abu Karsh said a recent shooting in the West Bank, just days before Israel's elections, was exploited to advance demolition, displacement, and expulsion agendas.

Speaking to Al Arabiya FM, he added that the timing was significant, as the ruling coalition interpreted the incident as a continued threat, aiming to rally right-wing supporters and sway undecided voters in their favor.

He noted that the incident has electoral implications for the current government, with its timing strongly reflected in recent opinion polls, while the deadlock between the coalition and the opposition persists.
