A detachment of Israel’s mounted police in Tel Aviv are dispersing anti-government protesters, who have succeeded in partially blocking the city’s central highway, a Sputnik correspondent reported. Hundreds rallied in Tel Aviv on Sunday in front of the defense ministry against Prime Minister Benjamin Netanyahu’s policies. The police were deployed at the site. About an hour past the assembly the demonstrators marched toward the Ayalon Highway and partially blocked it. Dozens are lined up along the road, waving flags and yelling slogans calling for snap elections. The mounted police are trying to force them away from the traffic area. A parallel authorized demonstration is taking place a few blocks away in support of the hostages continuing to remain in Hamas custody for over 150 days now. This is a recurring demonstration where people gather weekly to urge the government to achieve a deal and free the hostages at any cost.
