Residents of Safed are worried: "In these elections it will be determined - will the city become Bnei Brak" For the mayorship, the mayor, Likud member Shoki Ohana, is running against Yossi Kakun, a Shas representative. There is also a third contender, Arkady Brest, who does not really have a significant camp of supporters behind him.
"The elections interest me because Safed is important to me, I study here and feel that the city is changing," shared Oriya Batito.
