Hundreds of Ethiopian Jews protest Israeli racism
Israeli regime forces have again clashed with protesting Ethiopian Jews who returned to the streets of Tel Aviv to denounce widespread racial discrimination against the minority group.
The clashes broke out late Monday as some of the hundreds of native Ethiopian Jews and activists attempted to block roads around the city’s Rabin Square, chanting slogans such as, "No more oppression, no more violence and no more discrimination."
The protesters further shouted slogans demanding "social justice" as well as "the arrest of racist police."
The latest scuffles came as Ethiopian Jews in the occupied Palestinian land have waged a number of protest actions in the past weeks against the persisting police brutality and racism practiced by the Israeli regime, with some of the protest efforts turning violent through the use of force by the regime’s forces.
Nearly 135,000 native Ethiopian Jews live in Israel, including over 50,000 that have been born inside the occupied Palestinian territories.
