An alliance of three Arab-led parties, revived on 19 August 2026: Hadash's Arab-Jewish communist tradition, Ahmad Tibi's Ta'al, and Balad's demand for a state of all its citizens. It runs on ending the occupation and equal citizenship. Ra'am, in the alliance until 2020, stands alone.
The list, who comes with them
How this list is picked. Each of the three parties, Hadash, Ta'al and Balad, picks its own candidates, and a reconciliation committee sets the combined order, alternating between them at the top. The slip runs under all three registrations, and the seat number comes from polls that price the three together.

Where they stand
Two slates, two readings. Each side answers for its own record here. The party markers on the compare page follow the Hadash line, which is the platform this joint entry has run on.
