On the 1,000th day since the October 7, 2023 massacre, police clearing protesters from the Knesset entrance removed a large coffin-shaped display that had been placed as part of the demonstration, according to N12.
Police removed a large coffin-shaped protest display from the Knesset entrance on Thursday morning, the 1,000th day since the October 7, 2023 massacre, according to N12. The removal, captured in a photograph by Orna Koperman, came as officers continued clearing demonstrators who had blocked the gate. By 06:52 Jerusalem, The Zioneer had reported that clashes had broken out between protesters and police at the Knesset gate, with officers working to remove those blocking the entrance. Earlier at 06:29 Jerusalem, demonstrators had staged a symbolic 'wake-up call' to Prime Minister Netanyahu at the moment marking exactly 1,000 days since the massacre.
As The Zioneer reported on Thursday morning, the Knesset protest was part of a broader wave of actions: police also confiscated a megaphone at a demonstration outside the Prime Minister's residence on Balfour Street, protesters gathered outside the home of Knesset Speaker Amir Ohana, and a display was set up near Netanyahu's residence in Caesarea. A separate gathering at the Yanai Interchange was also reported. The coffin display itself was not mentioned in the initial thread reporting, but its removal was documented after the clearance operation was underway.
No arrests or injuries have been reported specifically in connection with the removal of the coffin display at this stage.
