TEL AVIV, ISRAEL - SEPTEMBER 17: Likud party campaign merchandise, including blue baseball caps reading "I Vote Bibi" and informational cards with a portrait of Prime Minister Benjamin Netanyahu, are displayed on a distribution table during a Likud election campaign event at Expo Tel Avivv on September 17, 2026 in Tel Aviv, Israel. The right-wing Likud party, led by Prime Minister Benjamin Netanyahu, is seeking to retain power in Israel's upcoming national election, due to be held on October 27. Recent polling suggests Likud and the ruling coalition face a tight race against opposition blocs, with no clear frontrunner emerging in an increasingly fragmented political landscape. The election is the first to be held since Israel went to war in Gaza, Lebanon and Iran, in the aftermath of the Hamas terror attacks on October 7, 2023. (Photo by Erik Marmor/Getty Images)
