Roads in Jerusalem blocked due to ultra-Orthodox protests
The roads leading to Jerusalem’s Kikar HaShabbat are blocked to traffic due to demonstrations by members of the ultra-Orthodox community against a state decision to perform an autopsy on a 4-month-old baby who died overnight after allegedly being shaken violently by a caretaker.
Some demonstrators set fire to garbage cans and hurl stones at police during the protest.
Ten demonstrators are arrested.
