Police are searching for suspects in a suspected attack on a group of anti-Netanyahu protesters in southern Israel.

“The Israel Police received a report that a few people arrived at the Sha’ar Hanegev junction, noticed a number of protesters, began yelling toward them and injured one of them, who according to a report was lightly wounded. Police forces arrived at the scene, took evidence and began operations to locate and arrest the suspect,” a police statement says.
