its the mizrahi pronounciation. its how jews from middle eastern countries learn hebrew. the common way of ע =silent خ=ח and so on is the ashkenazi pronounciation, thats how european ancestry jews speak hebrew.

Both Arabic and Hebrew are Semitic languages and thus are similar.

Both hebrew and arabic come from the same area and have the same roots so its only natural that the pronounciation is similar
