Hadash chairman MK Ayman Odeh addressed the attack on him in Nes Ziona and wrote on X: "A week ago, brave citizens organizing the weekly protest against the war and against the government invited me to speak tonight in the city of Nes Ziona. This morning we learned that fascist extremists threatened to attack us if we came, but we decided not to retreat." Odeh added: "We decided that no one would silence our voice. I was attacked by dozens of thugs. They attacked me and my team with stones, sticks and anything they could get their hands on. The whole time Ben Gvir's police stood by and did nothing."
