One motorcyclist participating in a convoy displaying green flags, documented on the anniversary of the October 7th massacre, was arrested after evading police and losing control of his vehicle. The incident occurred near Be'er Sheva when police attempted to stop the convoy for inspection. The rider failed to comply with officers' orders and fled, subsequently crashing and being apprehended. Authorities discovered he was driving without a license or insurance, leading to his detention and the impoundment of his motorcycle.
The convoy was reportedly part of a campaign for the Ra'am party, with some participants identified as Volt delivery workers.
