"Arab communities unite in strike to combat rising crime wave"

Arab towns and businesses in Israel are planning a general strike on Tuesday to protest against a surge in violent crime that has resulted in the deaths of over 160 members of the Arab community this year. Municipal leaders are calling for the establishment of an emergency committee to address the issue. The strike will involve local authorities, businesses, and the education system, with students joining in protest convoys. The strike announcement follows the funeral of a prominent imam who was shot and killed, sparking further outrage. Community leaders blame the Israeli government for neglecting Arab-Israeli citizens and failing to address the crime wave.
