Fugitive ex-Knesset member Azmi Bishara calls for higher Arab voter turnout in Israeli elections

Azmi Bishara, a former Knesset member who fled Israel and faces espionage accusations related to Hezbollah, has urged increased Arab community participation in upcoming Knesset elections. He described voting as a chance to hold the current Israeli government accountable for its policies toward Palestinians in Israel, the West Bank, and Gaza Strip, and to counter efforts to delegitimize Arab political engagement.
