US ambassador to Israel: participation of some Arab MPs in government is worrying

Israel ·

US ambassador Mike Huckabee said in an interview with Newsmax that some Arab lawmakers criticise Israel, and claimed they had not genuinely condemned the Hamas attack of 7 October 2023. He described their possible inclusion in the government as worrying.

Israel's Arab citizens make up about a fifth of the population, and Arab parties have sat in the Knesset for decades; their possible role in government has been debated since the Hamas-led attack of 7 October 2023.
