Hundreds of Israelis protest against war, clash with police

Weekly protests against the war launched by Israel and the United States against Iran on February 28 have been taking place in Tel Aviv and other major cities, initially drawing only a few dozen participants. Numbers now appear to be rising, though far from the tens of thousands who filled Tel Aviv’s streets last year to protest the war in Gaza. A number of former parliamentarians and prominent left‑wing organisations joined Saturday’s rallies, including Standing Together, Peace Now and Women Wage Peace.
