This question resolves to Yes if an Israeli protester, in any protest in the country, is confirmed to be killed because of actions taken by police forces, or related to injury caused by the police, before September 1st 2023.

for the sake of this market, an Israeli protester is an Israeli citizen, Jewish or not, participating in a gathering reported as a protest on ynet. (i.e. if ynet reports it as terrorism, won't count towards the market). Magav don't count as police.

I'm currently very inclined towards NO because the last few protests went smoothly, and escalation in the protests is only likely near the supreme court decisions in the beginning of September

An outsiders perspective, but why not? There are so many protesting it'd be a wonder if no one died and a policeman be involved.

Any citizen of Israel? Resident of Israel? Do residents of the occupied territories count? A,B and C territories? Is Magav also considered police?

@RonWiener What exactly constitutes a protest for this market? Some would consider rock throwing in roads in Sumeria protests, others consider that acts of terror worthy of on the spot execution

The protests today seem to have passed with no violence

I was in the central protest in Tel Aviv today (July 24) and was hit in the back by a mounted police horse, causing me a minor injury. The police were incredibly pissed off, with their commander shouting "why haven't you dispersed them already?" to the troops. The police tried to disperse the protest (by my rough estimate, 10,000-30,000 people) with three mounted horsemen and a single water cannon, and eventually moved to focus on people who managed to block the highway.
