Local Editor

Several "Israeli" protesters of Ethiopian origin were arrested on Monday in Tel Aviv under the pretext of "misbehavior" at a protest, police said.

"Following misbehavior by demonstrators, police arrested 15 people," spokesman Micky Rosenfeld said.

He further added: "Despite attempts to talk to them, the demonstrators continually chose to disrupt public order by blocking roads and not obeying police instructions."

According to the information, several hundred "Israeli" Ethiopians earlier staged a peaceful demonstration in the city.

They bore placards saying "No to racism!" and "Police state!", and also chanted anti-police slogans.
Ethiopians in the Zionist entity have staged several rallies against police brutality and racism in recent weeks, some of which have erupted into violence.

"Israel" has some 135,500 of Ethiopian descent, including more than 50,000 born inside the Zionist entity.

The community has been at the center of storms over institutionalized racism in recent years.
