Over 10,000 people reported to attend Jerusalem protest
Hebrew-language media reports that over 10,000 people are attending the anti-government rally in Jerusalem.
Public Security Minister Amir Ohana, a Netanyahu ally whose ministry oversees police, has denied reports that he previously asked police to use water canons, clubs or stun grenades against protesters.
“I don’t deal with the ‘how,'” he writes on Facebook. “That is an operational consideration. Only equal police treatment for all population groups will guarantee a police that isn’t political.”
