9:32AM IL: Police a short time ago declared a protest by Um el-Fahm residents and left-wing Israeli supports to leave the area, calling their gathering “illegal” and informing them they must disperse.

Police are out in force, with a helicopter overhead, as an impressive showing of force is required to protect 100 Jews carrying Israeli flags against an Israeli Arab municipality of 47,000 which objects to the flag march event. (Yechiel Spira – YWN Israel)
