Police arrest 23 protesters, shut down anti-war protest in Haifa
Police arrested 23 anti-war protesters in Haifa this evening during a demonstration against Israel’s ongoing Gaza offensive.
A spokesperson for law enforcement says demonstrators did not heed officers’ calls to disperse and “carried signs and [chanted] calls against Israel’s actions in the Gaza war.”
Video posted to social media of the demonstration shows a small group of protesters holding banners in Hebrew, Arabic and English, among them with calls to “Stop bombing aid convoys” and “Stop the genocide.”
Within a few moments of declaring the demonstration unlawful, cops tore protesters’ signs away and began to forcefully arrest several in the crowd.
