At least two demonstrators were injured by stun grenades that exploded at the end of a protest by the Jerusalem Faction in Jerusalem. Both were evacuated to the hospital for treatment. One demonstrator sustained moderate injuries, while the other suffered an eye injury. The incident occurred at the "Mar'an Junction" in Jerusalem. In a separate event, police arrested three demonstrators in Bnei Brak, identified as Haredi men.
The Jerusalem Faction is a group within the Haredi (ultra-Orthodox) community. The protest's conclusion saw the detonation of stun grenades, leading to the injuries. The police reported the arrests in Bnei Brak, a city with a large Haredi population, though the connection between the Jerusalem protest and the arrests in Bnei Brak was not explicitly stated as direct.
