About the arabic article

the arabic article of this says that the city is in palestine, can someone fix it? Gahex220 (talk) 14:53, 13 September 2024 (UTC)[reply]

outdated mayor information.

In the 2024 municipal elections, former mayor Yona Yahav, overthrew Einat Rotem Kalish and reclaimed the mayor position, which he is officiating since. this page cites Rotem Kalish as the current Mayor, which she isn't anymore. duo to protection of the page, I can't edit it myself.
