Police say protest zone expanded to allow more socially-distanced activists

Police say they have enlarged the protest zone in Jerusalem’s Paris Square to allow as many people as want to to attend a protest against Prime Minister Benjamin Netanyahu.

They say in a statement they are urging protesters via megaphone to keep all necessary hygiene and distancing rules.

“Police… are acting to allow the holding of protests for all demonstrators, but will not allow disturbances to public order, [and] breaking public health guidelines,” a statement says.
