Video of clashes over purported conscription orders misrepresented as anti-war protest in Israel
29.03.2026
Protests have broken out in Israel demanding an end to the Middle East war sparked by a US-Israeli strike on Iran in February 2026, but a video circulating online that shows people clashing with the police is not linked to the rallies. The footage in fact was filmed at a skirmish between police and locals in an ultra-Orthodox suburb of Tel Aviv weeks before the war broke out over rumours that soldiers were there to serve conscription orders.
