Police say dozens of officers deployed in TA
Add ToI as a Preferred Source on GoogleAfter a demonstration of Ethiopian Israelis turned violent several weeks ago, forcing police to use mounted officers and tear gas, dozens of officers were deployed today ahead of another protest, for fear that rioting may ensue despite the scorching heat.
By 5 p.m. the ranks of protesters started to swell a little but there were no still no major disturbances of the peace noted. Just over 100 people were marching marching from Rothschild Avenue in the direction of Habima Square. They were not blocking any streets and at this time the protest was being conducted slowly and quietly.
