According to CoinMeta, as reported by CBS ( CBS ) in the United States, on Tuesday morning local time, Israeli citizens began to participate in the national elections. These elections will determine the composition of the country's next government, with the Iran war becoming an important factor affecting voters' decisions. Israel's Defense Minister Katz stated that voters are faced with a choice between two security approaches: "One is based on offense, proactive action, and decisive victory, while the other is a return to a policy of containment and restraint." Katz said, "We have struck Iran twice and eliminated threats to our existence; we have expanded Israel's security buffer zones in Lebanon, Syria, and Gaza to protect Israeli communities; currently, we are strengthening and consolidating defenses along the eastern border and in the Jordan Valley region." He called on Israeli voters to "support this approach in order to accomplish our tasks."
