Tel Aviv protests end in violence

Social activists in Tel Aviv clashed with police across the city
Saturday evening. The night started with a rally against police
violence, as some 2,000 protestors gathered in Tel Aviv's Habima
Square a day after 12 activists were detained by police during a
social protest. Soon after, violent clashes erupted at various
locations across Tel Aviv, including at 5 banks near the city's Rabin
Square. Protestors shattered windows at some banks, in one case making
their way into the bank with a tent, the symbol of last year's housing
protest, and barricading themselves inside. Protestors blocked one of
the city's main streets, Ibn Gvirol, and later also managed to halt
traffic on the southbound lanes of the Ayalon Freeway. Some 85 people
were arrested throughout the night.
