Israeli fascists attack Hadash leader Ayman Odeh, chant "death to Arabs"

Hadash-Ta'al chairman and Knesset member Ayman Odeh was attacked during a protest in Ness Ziona on Saturday evening when a mob of right-wing extremists surrounded his car, spat at him, and caused significant damage to the vehicle, including cracking the windshield and damaging the fender.

According to the "Jerusalem Post", although police forces were present at the scene, no arrests were made. Eyewitnesses reported that the officers took minimal action, choosing instead to "contain" the situation rather than intervene forcefully.

Hadash-Ta'al responded to the assault, condemning the violence and asserting that it would not silence their voice. "The brutal attack against Knesset members Ayman Odeh and Ofer Cassif in Ness Ziona comes from above, rooted in the organized incitement by those who fear a future for peace and democracy. They are afraid that we will raise our voices in a joint struggle against the occupation and for the expansion of the democratic space," the party said.

They added that the damage to Odeh's car "echoes the dark days when a powerless individual, now a mass murderer, used a car as a symbol of violence." Hadash vowed, "The writing is on the wall, but we will erase it without fear and continue to engage with the public. Our struggle has already won, and it will contiνue to prevail." 

In a post on "X", comrade Ayman Odeh wrote: "Fascism will not pass. Kahanism will not pass. We will not let them prevail!".
