Hundreds of anti-government demonstrators clash with mounted police in Tel Aviv.
In the clashes on Begin Street in Tel Aviv, lawmakers Naama Lazimi and Gilad Kariv of the Labor party shout at police to refrain from pushing the demonstrators, who the lawmakers argue are nonviolent.
The clashes follow the blocking of an intersection on Begin Street by protesters who splintered off from the weekly anti-government protest on Kaplan Street, which thousands attend every Saturday night.
