Protests against police brutality Tel Aviv

Israel, Tel Aviv, July 2, 2019 After the funeral of Solomon Tekah, killed near Haifa by an off-duty police man, protesters block the HaShalom junction and Ayalon highway in Tel Aviv at evening rush hour for 3 hours, to protest the killing specifically and against the police brutality against the Ethiopian community generally. The protest was mostly peaceful. Aggression came from overheated motorists. And from one person setting an abandoned car on fire. © Thomas Schlijper tschlijper@
