Aryeh Deri’s replacement, Shas’ Aryeh Deri, has made a name for himself as an unusual politician with a focus on long-term achievements and a commitment to public service. Arbel believes that haredi men should serve in the IDF or national service, but also recognizes the importance of Torah study. He sees local authorities as key to bridging social gaps and has implemented initiatives such as online documentation orders and an “aliyah eligibility document.” Arbel emphasizes service to all citizens, including Arab municipalities. Despite the political divide, his work in the Interior Ministry has garnered praise and he has shown sympathy for hostage families.
