Why Israeli-Russian politicians are flirting with the anti-vax vote

Why Israeli-Russian politicians are flirting with the anti-vax vote

In Episode 8 of our Election Overdose podcast Anshel Pfeffer and Dahlia Scheindlin together with this week’s guest Ksenia Svetlova ask who are the 'Russian' voters? Why do they vote mainly for the right-wing? Why are some of their representatives in the Knesset vaccination-skeptics and does that attract voters?

Also, what was Benjamin Netanyahu trying to achieve in his rare prime-time TV interview this week? Why is everyone ganging up on Labor’s Arab-Israeli candidate? And will the battle between Naftali Bennett and Gideon Sa’ar decide the outcome of the election?
