Nearly 1.9 million Arabs remain in israel, accounting for nearly 20% of the population. The majority are descended from Palestinians who stayed in israel during the Arab-Israeli war of 1948. The majority of Arab Israelis live in a few Arab-majority cities that are among the poorest in the world. Critics also expressed concerns that Arab schools get less support and that the large racial divide between Arabs and Jews makes Arab Israelis down. Here's what you need to hear about Israel's Arab people and the challenges they face as a minority group.

As the unrest in the Gaza Strip escalates, we take a peek at some of the histories behind the Arab uprisings in Israel. It was claimed incorrectly that Arab Israelis self-identify as Palestinians. Arab Israelis participate in elections and serve in Israel's national assembly, the Knesset. They are excluded from mandatory military service, unlike the majority of Jewish Israelis.

Many Arab Israelis sympathise with Palestinians living in the Gaza Strip and the West Bank. According to a 2016 Pew Research Center survey, nearly half of Israeli Jews favour expelling or relocating Arabs from the region. According to the Associated press, Arabs seemed to be gathering political clout in israel prior to the latest outburst of conflict. The leader of the United Arab List party was supposed to play a key role in building an alliance to unseat prime minister Benjamin Netanyahu.
