Israel's National Security Minister Itamar Ben-Gvir's speech at Tel Aviv University was interrupted by protesters chanting "No fascism here." A smaller group of counter-protesters shouted "Death to Arabs."
Ben-Gvir questioned the protesters' commitment to democracy, asking why they would not listen to his voice when they had previously heard representatives from the Arab parties Ra'am and the Joint List, as well as Yair Golan, chairman of the left-wing party Meretz, who spoke earlier that evening. The minister accused the demonstrators of holding double standards.
He also drew a parallel to the October 7, 2023, Hamas attack, stating that Hamas did not differentiate between left-wing and right-wing Israelis, targeting them solely for being Jewish. Ben-Gvir reiterated his call for Israel to establish full control over the Gaza Strip, asserting that Israel must "conquer the entire Gaza Strip" and that Hamas should not maintain any presence there.
