The Likud Party has submitted an urgent request to the Supreme Court to request an urgent temporary restraining order instructing the attorney general not to publish his announcement on indictments in Prime Minister Binyamin Netanyahu's corruption cases before the elections.

The Likud joined in a petition submitted by attorney Yossi Fuchs, who wants to delay the attorney general's announcement until after the elections. The argument is that the decision of the attorney general at this time, after the closing of the Knesset lists, is unprecedented.
