Israel’s election and Iran – level 1
23-10-2026 15:00
Israel is getting ready for a big election. The conflict with Iran is an important topic. Many people want to keep fighting Iran.
Opponents of Prime Minister Benjamin Netanyahu say that he does not win the war. But he says that he will do it. Other politicians say that Iran still has nuclear materials. Israel is a dangerous country for them. Others want to bomb Iranian oil and energy sites to hurt its government.
Some leaders also worry that Netanyahu may start new attacks just before the election. It can make more people vote for him.
Difficult words: election (when people choose a leader), topic (what you speak or think about), opponent (a person who has different ideas than the leader).
You can watch the original video in the Level 3 section.
