*ELECTION RULING:* Israel’s Supreme Court has ruled that Ra’am, the Joint List and MK Ofer Cassif may run in the upcoming Knesset elections, reversing disqualification decisions made by the Central Elections Committee. The committee had previously voted to disqualify Cassif over allegations that his conduct met the legal grounds for barring a candidate from running. The attorney general had maintained that the legal threshold for disqualifying Cassif, Ra’am and the Joint List had not been met.
