Israel's population has surpassed 10 million people, according to the Ma'an news agency. The country's Arab citizens account for approximately 2 million of the total population, representing roughly one-fifth of Israel's demographic composition.
The updated population figures underscore the ethnic and religious diversity within Israel's borders. Arabs remain a significant minority within the state, though their proportion of the overall population has fluctuated over decades. The 10 million threshold marks a notable demographic milestone for the country, reflecting patterns of natural increase and immigration that have shaped its population growth since its establishment.
