Angelina Fares

Angelina Faris (Arabic: انجلينا فارس, Hebrew: אנג'לינה פארס) is an Israeli Druze model and beauty pageant contestant.

[1] She represented Israel in an international competition in Russia[vague] and finished tenth among eighty participants.

Fares caused great resentment among the Druze community when she decided to compete in the Miss Israel beauty contest and became a finalist.

Following those threats and the pressure that was put on her by the Druze religious leadership, she finally withdrew from the contest and later from her high school.

[3] Her sister, Jamila "Maya" Fares, was murdered in 2011, many suspect by members of the Druze community.
