A delegation from the Joint List visited the village of Dhahiya in the Negev on Monday to express solidarity with residents whose homes and the village mosque were demolished the previous day. The delegation included prominent figures from the Joint List, such as its head, Professor Yousef Jbareen, Member of Knesset Ofer Cassif, and candidates Hassan Al-Nassasra, Yousef Al-Atawneh, and Ahmed Darawsheh.
On Sunday, the Joint List issued a statement condemning what it called a "criminal authoritarian campaign" against Dhahiya. The statement detailed the demolition of dozens of inhabited homes, land leveling, and the displacement of families, describing the actions as a "blatant assault on the most basic human and national rights of our people in the Negev."
The Joint List further stated that the events in Dhahiya are not isolated but represent a continuation of demolition, uprooting, and displacement policies pursued by successive governments against Arab villages in the Negev. They characterized the actions as an attempt to impose a new reality of land confiscation and denial of the original inhabitants' right to live with dignity on their ancestral land.
