Despite warnings that the Tel Aviv anti-government protest may attract right-wing agitators, there has been no violence.
Two teens wearing scarves marking them out as fans of the Beitar Jerusalem soccer team, known for its right-wing fans, attempt to provoke a reaction. “Only Ben Gvir,” one teen repeatedly shouts, referring to National Security Minister Itamar Ben Gvir, leader of the far-right Otzma Yehudit party.
“Stupid boy,” responds one older lady as the rest of the crowd ignores him.
