A poll conducted by the Israel Democracy Institute revealed that the Gaza war has led to a significant increase in the sense of solidarity with Israel among its 21% Arab minority, who often identify as Palestinian. The survey showed a rise in the percentage of Israeli Arabs who consider themselves 'part of the State of Israel and its issues' from 48% in June 2023 to 70% following the October 7th massacre. This represents the highest rate ever recorded, with many Arab Israelis deciding to identify as Israelis rather than Palestinians. The findings indicate a shift in the perception of identity among the Arab minority in Israel, particularly in the wake of the recent conflict.
