United Arab List Head Mansour Abbas Calls Joint List Leaders, Urges Cooperation
Editorial illustration generated by baba News, not a photograph of the event.

Mansour Abbas, head of the United Arab List (UAL), initiated phone calls with the leaders of the three main Arab political factions: Youssef Jabareen of the Joint List and the Democratic Front, Ahmad Tibi of the Joint List and Arab Change, and Sami Abu Shehadeh of the National Union. Abbas congratulated the leaders on their election results, emphasizing the significant responsibility facing all Arab Knesset members in the upcoming period. The leaders, in turn, congratulated the UAL and its representatives, acknowledging the substantial public trust they received. Abbas called for enhanced cooperation, coordination, and role integration between the UAL and the Joint List to advance the interests and aspirations of their constituents, particularly given the high voter turnout and unprecedented vote counts for both lists. The discussions also covered the election outcomes and the political landscape of the next Knesset, including the prospects for forming an alternative government to the current one led by Netanyahu, Ben-Gvir, and Smotrich. Both sides agreed to maintain direct communication and coordination moving forward.
