Labor MK Raleb Majadele on Wednesday criticized what he called the "poor treatment" of the country's minorities during a Knesset session to vote on legislation proposing the establishment of committees to probe left-wing NGOs.

"If you don't care for the minority, the world will judge you," he said noting how haredim "are paid to pray, while I, who prays five times a day, get nothing."

The Labor MK called on other MKs to "climb down from your tree, take care of Israeli society, and stop inciting the minority."

Houthis say they targeted US, Israeli cargo ships, US naval vessel
