Activists from the Arab-Jewish party gathered outside the home of Police Commissioner Danny Levi this morning, accusing him of failing to address the wave of murders in Arab society, according to N12 reporter Sharon Knowlich. The protesters chanted, 'Danny, during your shift, a citizen is murdered every 28 hours.'
The Zioneer has reported on previous protests by Makom Lekulanu over the police response to crime in Arab communities, including demonstrations outside the home of National Security Minister Itamar Ben-Gvir and at a Japnika branch in Haifa. The murder toll in Arab society has continued to rise, reaching at least 150 since the start of 2026, according to reports from N12. The police commissioner has not yet responded to the protesters' allegations.
