01 · THE DISPATCH

Police confiscated sound equipment during a protest in Jerusalem on Saturday night, in the middle of a speech by former defense minister Moshe (Bogi) Ya'alon, according to Israeli media reports. The demonstration, part of the ongoing protests near the Prime Minister's Residence on Balfour Street and Paris Square, saw officers remove the amplification system after citing an unlicensed procession, the blocking of intersections, and the use of amplified sound beyond the conditions set for the protests — conditions that received legal standing from the High Court of Justice. No prior reporting on this specific confiscation was found in the Zioneer archive.
