High-raking Israeli officials are plotting against Sheikh Raed Salah, the head of the Islamic Movement's northern branch claimed on Saturday. Salah told supporters during a rally in Umm el-Fahm that a certain Arab country had warned him that extreme right-wing members were planning to assassinate him. His speech was made in the presence of the town's mayor, Knesset members and Arab religious leaders during the event organized by the Israeli Arab Higher Follow-up Committee.
