Police Say Jerusalem Protesters Were Arrested for Unauthorized March and Loud Amplification
Police said they arrested protesters at Paris Square in Jerusalem because they held an unauthorized march, blocked roads, and used amplification equipment in violation of police conditions. The force said the demonstration disrupted public order and traffic flow.
According to the police, the protesters used sound equipment at high volume before the start of Shabbat, near homes, and in a way that harmed local residents' daily life. Police stressed that the issue was not the protest itself, but the failure to follow the conditions set for it.
The police also said an officer addressed the participants and ordered them to comply with the protest terms and stop using the amplification equipment. When they refused, police seized the equipment that was still operating. The statement did not specify how many people were arrested or whether charges were filed.
