05/21/2018 (Israel) - According to local media reports, more than 200 people gathered in Haifa on Sunday, 20 May, to protest in solidarity with the residents of Gaza. Demonstrators gathered outside the city's courthouse to denounce the recent violence in the Gaza strip and to call for detainees of Friday's protests to be freed. Further protests on this issue are likely in the coming days.
Members in Israel are advised to avoid the vicinity of protests or any other large political gatherings in order to limit the chances of being affected by incidental violence and heavy-handed security response. Travellers should monitor local media sources for information regarding further demonstrations and should heed any directives issued by the authorities.
