Rula Daoud, Co-Chair of the "All of Us are Equal" party, visited the Bedouin village of Huzeifa in the Negev on Monday, October 12, 2026, to express solidarity with families whose homes were demolished earlier that day. The demolition operation affected approximately 80 homes, leaving around 400 people displaced and without shelter. Daoud strongly criticized the home demolition policy led by National Security Minister Itamar Ben-Gvir, calling it part of his election campaign propaganda. She stated that Ben-Gvir uses the suffering of people and the destruction of their homes for political gain. Daoud emphasized that a responsible government would not simply send bulldozers and police, leaving hundreds of people without homes or essential belongings. She asserted that the events in Huzeifa highlight the urgent need for fair planning solutions, recognition of unrecognized villages, and an end to policies that create housing insecurity for thousands of citizens. Daoud urged voters to remove Ben-Gvir from power through the ballot box on October 27, stating, "Our response to Ben-Gvir must be through the ballot boxes. We must all exercise our right to vote and work to strip him of the political power that allows him to continue his policies of racism and oppression against our people. Ben-Gvir out of the government!"
