The IDF has issued an alert order placing additional ground forces on standby and is considering canceling soldiers' leave around Israel's October 27 election.
A military official: the move is part of preparations for the vote, not a response to a specific or immediate warning, but a "measure of readiness and alertness given the sensitivity of the period."
The IDF says a decision has not been finalized and will come later this week.
Election days in Israel are public holidays.
