Demonstrators gathered outside Israel’s parliament, the Knesset, in Jerusalem, calling for new elections and voicing opposition to the presence and political role of Arab lawmakers. Some protesters chanted “A Jewish state” and held banners with slogans criticising Arab political representatives. Others called for new elections, while some confronted police officers stationed outside the parliamentary building. The demonstration highlighted tensions surrounding Arab political representation in Israel and differing views over the country’s national identity and parliamentary politics. The slogans and accusations displayed during the protest reflected the demonstrators’ own views and were not established facts about the lawmakers concerned.
