World2 sources1 country🔦 Under-reported34m ago
Ra'am leader Mansour Abbas and former Yesh Atid MK Yoav Segalovitz have confirmed that they are holding ongoing discussions regarding Segalovitz joining the Arab party's Knesset slate. The negotiations are taking place as the Islamist party seeks to broaden its appeal by shedding its religious image and positioning itself as a viable coalition partner.
The potential move has drawn political opposition, with the far-right Otzma Yehudit party publicly claiming that Abbas is utilizing the negotiations to transform the Negev and Galilee regions into 'Islamic territory.'
