Asylum seekers protest forced deportations outside president’s residence

Dozens of African asylum seekers are protesting outside President Reuven Rivlin’s residence against a new plan that would see them forcibly deported to Uganda or Rwanda.

Some protesters are chanting: “Don’t despair, we will stop the deportations,” while others are calling on Rivlin “not to abandon human life.”
