Hundreds of Eritrean women protested in Tel Aviv earlier against the police’s failure to halt repeated violent clashes between supporters and opponents of the regime in Asmara.
The women rallied near the police’s district headquarters in the city’s south. They demanded law enforcement ensure their safety in the wake of recent violent incidents.
The protest was organized by opponents of the authoritarian regime, with many signs blasting and demanding the closure of the “terrorist embassy” in the city, which was at the center of unprecedented riots last month that injured over 100 people.
