A Hadash (Democratic Front for Peace and Equality) investigative committee has received testimony from seven women alleging sexual harassment by Jaafar Farah, the director of the Mossawa Center for Civil Rights. The committee, established to examine allegations against Farah, heard the women's accounts over the past week. The Mossawa Center, which advocates for Arab citizens of Israel, has stated it is taking the allegations seriously and is cooperating with the investigation.
Farah has denied the allegations. The committee's findings are expected to be released soon and will be presented to the relevant authorities. The report details the women's experiences, which reportedly occurred over several years. The committee emphasized its commitment to a thorough and impartial investigation.
This development comes amidst a broader discussion in Israel regarding workplace harassment and the accountability of public figures.

The full scope of the allegations and the potential consequences for Farah and the Mossawa Center remain to be seen as the investigation concludes.
