Likud announced it will submit formal disqualification requests against the Joint List and Ra'am party in the upcoming elections.

Likud announced it will submit formal disqualification requests against the Joint List and Ra'am party in the upcoming elections. The party harshly criticized the Arab parties and stated: "There is no place in the Knesset of Israel for those who harm IDF soldiers and cannot say that Hamas and Hezbollah are terrorist organizations." Likud warned against future political cooperation, emphasizing that "these supporters of terror are the natural partners of Gadi Eisenkot, with whom he wants to form a government together with Yair Golan and Lieberman – we must not let this happen." The announcement comes amid a turbulent election campaign and reflects Likud's hardline stance toward Arab parties. The analysis points to the use of sharp partisan rhetoric, combining accusations of supporting terrorism and warnings about broad political cooperation.
