Small demo of Ethiopian Israelis near Kiryat Gat

Dozens of demonstrators from the Ethiopian community are marching on Route 35 toward Plugot Punction, accompanied by police officers from the Lachish District.

Police say that, as long as the march does not block Route 40 or Route 35, it will be allowed to continue.

A small section of the road between Plugot and the industrial zone in Kiryat Gat is nevertheless blocked by police, to allow the march to take place there.
