Thousands of Arab Israelis took to the streets, blocking roads in protest against rampant violence and organized crime in their communities. They called for a society free of firearms, driven by Arab leaders.

This unrest followed a general strike, highlighting the urgency of their demands. Over 70 killings have marred Arab communities this year, with many accusing law enforcement of indifference.

In response, authorities announced plans to bolster police presence and resources. They urged cooperation from the community, acknowledging the need for collective action against this escalating violence.
