Police Deploy as Bar-Ilan Protesters Renew Light-Rail Worksite Disruption

Extremist protesters breached fences at Jerusalem's Bar-Ilan light-rail worksite Sunday night during a renewed demonstration against construction, footage posted at 22:07 showed. Israel Police said participants tried to block roads intermittently, disrupt the works and interfere with daily life, prompting an officer to declare a public disturbance and order them off the roadway. Jerusalem District officers and Border Police deployed at the scene while police moved to preserve public order. Later reports said forces were dispersing the crowd; no injuries or arrests were announced in the cited updates.
