Israel's Supreme Court has overturned a decision by the Central Elections Committee to bar Arab parties from running in the parliamentary election at the end of October. The ruling means Arab lists will appear on the ballot in what is seen as a pivotal vote, and the decision is drawing attention to the tensions between the judiciary and election officials over political participation.

Why now: The Supreme Court ruling upholds Arab parties' right to run in a high-stakes parliamentary election seen as pivotal for Israel's future.
