Israel's Supreme Court overturns ban on Arab electoral lists

Original: « … Israel's Supreme Court has overturned a decision barring the country's two main Arab electoral lists from this month

Israel's Supreme Court has overturned a decision by the electoral authorities to bar the country's two main Arab political lists from standing in this month's parliamentary election. The ruling allows the Arab parties to participate. The move to ban them had drawn sharp criticism as anti-democratic, and the court's reversal is being closely watched amid heightened political tension and debate over Arab citizens' rights in Israel.

Why now: The court ruling is fresh news with major implications for Arab political representation in Israel's election.
