Counter-protest planned for Jewish-Arab wedding

With a rally spearheaded by the anti-intermarriage group Lehava set to take place at a mixed Jewish-Arab wedding tonight, a counter-demonstration has been organized as well.

Demonstrators plan to bear flowers and signs wishing the couple congratulations outside the Rishon Lezion wedding hall.

“Morel and Mahmoud are not a public institution and no one has the right to harass them,” organizer Guy Ronen says, according to Ynet.

Mahmoud Mansour and Morel Malcha are set wed this evening.

The Lehava group has been distanced 200 meters from the wedding hall by a court order.
