The United Arab List (UAL) has condemned what it described as a "racist assault" by officers under Minister Ben Gvir on its candidate, Abd al-Karim Azzam, and party members in Nazareth on Tuesday. The party stated that police officers attempted to prevent UAL members from distributing election flyers in the Shihab al-Din roundabout area. According to the UAL, officers threatened party members with fines without justification and praised Ben Gvir in front of them before physically pushing Azzam when he objected to their actions.
The UAL asserted that its members continued distributing flyers despite the provocation, receiving support from local residents who joined their activity in protest of the police conduct. The party declared that such actions would not deter them from their political goals, expressing confidence that growing popular support would soon lead to Ben Gvir and his government being in the opposition, ending what they called policies of racism, hatred, and hostility towards the Arab community.
