At least one person has been arrested as police begin to disperse the crowds of anti-government protesters in Tel Aviv.

In video footage posted online, several police officers can be seen grabbing the protester and dragging him away as people chant “Police! Police! You’re protecting me!” to warn against police brutality.

Labor MKs Gilad Kariv and Na’ama Lazimi are both present at the scene of the arrest, where they are met with jeers from right-wing demonstrators.
