The Arab United List party has condemned what it described as a "racist assault" by police officers under Minister Ben Gvir on its candidate, Abd al-Karim Azzam, in Nazareth. The incident occurred on Tuesday when officers allegedly attempted to prevent party members from distributing election flyers in the Shahab al-Din roundabout area. The party stated that police officers threatened its members with fines without justification and praised Ben Gvir in front of them before assaulting Azzam when he objected to their actions.
The United List asserted that its members continued distributing flyers despite the provocation, receiving support from local residents who joined the effort in response to the police conduct. The party declared that such actions would not deter them from their political goals, expressing confidence that with growing popular support, they would soon send Ben Gvir and his government into opposition, ending what they called his "racist, hateful, and hostile policies" towards the Arab community.
