Ra’am party chief Mansour Abbas took harsh criticism from within his conservative Islamist party on Sunday for meeting with Lod mayor Yair Revivo following widespread civil unrest in Israel’s Arab-Jewish cities.
Abbas met the controversial mayor during a tour of the city, during which the Islamist also vowed to help rebuild the city’s synagogues, several of which were torched during numerous outbreaks of violence in recent days.
“It’s important, Yair, we have a very difficult mission reviving relations between Jews and Arabs,” Abbas told Revivo as they visited a synagogue together.

President Reuven Rivlin announced Wednesday that he had tasked Yesh Atid leader Yair Lapid with forming Israel’s next government, after Prime Minister Benjamin Netanyahu a day earlier acknowledged he had failed to build a coalition.
Lapid, like Netanyahu before him, now has 28 days to try and form a government, though the new prime minister-designate faces an uphill battle to complete the task.
In a televised statement from his official residence, Rivlin said his “main consideration” in picking Lapid was that he had the best chance of forming a government that can win the Knesset’s backing, though this, the president said, would be difficult.
