Police arrest at least 10 protesters at anti-government protest outside Netanyahu’s home in Jerusalem
Police arrest at least 10 protesters outside Prime Minister Benjamin Netanyahu’s home in Jerusalem.
Protesters are facing off with police while holding stretchers and lighting bonfires, chanting, “There is no routine without a deal.”
Police periodically jump into the crowd and pick off protesters and arrest them. They also confiscate stretchers, flags, and signs.
The Moriah Police Station Commander declares the demonstration unlawful, and police bring a water cannon and horse-mounted officers to disperse protesters.
