For Arabic, percentage sign is fixed on the left side of the digit: %10  and for Hebrew, percentage sign is on the right side of digit: 10%.

Subject: Arabic percent sign and percent signs in RTL scripts

Is the arabic percent sign (U+066A) just a typographical variation of the "normal" percent sign (U+0025) or is it somehow more distinct than that?

What about its placement? Is it placed to the left or to the right of the digits it applies to?

Mit freundlichen Grüßen,

Martinho
