Definition

There are instances of segregation between Israeli Arabs and Jewish Israelis in various aspects of life in Israel. This includes segregation in education, healthcare, housing, employment, and public spaces. There are also some laws and policies that discriminate against Arab citizens of Israel, such as the controversial Nation-State Law, which defines Israel as the nation-state of the Jewish people and does not explicitly guarantee equal rights for all its citizens. While there are efforts to improve relations between Israeli Arabs and Jewish Israelis, segregation and discrimination continue to be significant challenges in Israeli society.
