Israel Police have aggressively broken up a small protest in Tel Aviv calling for a ceasefire in Gaza.

Footage shows officers violently stripping away signs that read, “stop the massacre” from the handful of demonstrators.

Police reportedly told the demonstrators that they were breaking up the protest because it was “harming the feelings of the public.”

Protests against the war are not illegal under Israeli law.
