Netanyahu defends hidden cameras in Arab towns, to ‘ensure fair vote’

Prime Minister Benjamin Netanyahu is challenged by reporters over news that Likud had deployed hundreds of hidden cameras to polling stations in Arab towns.

He appears to defend the action, which the Central Elections Committee earlier today said was “forbidden.”

“There should be cameras everywhere, not hidden ones,” he says.

Asked by a reporter why the cameras are necessary, he says it’s to “ensure a fair vote.”
