This was the historic mobilization of the Arab vote to end the coalition of Netanyahu and the far-right Ben Gvir

The recent elections in Israel have highlighted the aspirations of the Arab community, which seeks to end Netanyahu's coalition and gain a more active role in governance. Historically, the Arab vote has been significant, with a peak in 2015 when they secured 15 seats. In the latest elections, the Joint List achieved 12 seats and Raam 7, with a notable collaboration involving a former Jewish deputy. Despite their electoral success, concerns remain about the potential for new elections and the ongoing challenges posed by crime in Arab communities. The Arab electorate showed unprecedented turnout, reflecting a shift in political engagement.
