Israeli Arab Hadash party holds protest vigil against UAE-Israel peace deal
Headline: “Nazareth: A protest vigil against the normalization agreement between the UAE and Israel”
“The [Israeli Arab] Hadash party organized a protest vigil yesterday [Aug. 22, 2020] against the normalization agreement between the UAE and Israel (see note below –Ed.), which comes at the expense of our Palestinian people, its rights, and its just cause.
Members and activists of the party and Israeli [Arab] Parliament Members Mtanes Shihadeh and Heba Yazbak participated in the vigil, which was held at the city square in Nazareth.
The party said that its position that rejects the agreement constitutes the position of the male and female members of our people, particularly because we are on the threshold of a difficult new period after the deal of the century (i.e., refers to US President Donald Trump’s Middle East peace plan) and the UAE’s normalization agreement.
The participants in the vigil waved the Palestinian flag and slogans and signs condemning the normalization with the occupation.”
Text on signs: “Palestine is stronger than your normalization” and “Down with the deal of shame”
