The Hadash-Ta'al political alliance has recommended that Jaafar Farah, who is ranked fourth on the joint Arab list for the upcoming elections, withdraw his candidacy. This recommendation follows allegations of sexual harassment made against him by several women.

A special committee was formed by the parties to examine the claims. However, the parties emphasized that this was not a formal investigative committee, and it did not determine the veracity of the allegations.

A discussion was held on the matter yesterday, after which the parties concluded they could not formally remove Farah from the list. Consequently, they issued a statement recommending his resignation from the slate.
