Ethiopian Jews Protest in Israel

Police were reportedly cordoning off a street due to a suspicious object when the soldier, who was riding his bicycle in full uniform, asked them what was happening. Police allegedly responded by lashing out at soldier. They pushed him off his bike, and one officer allegedly said, “I can do whatever I want,” and then began beating the soldier.
