Violence has erupted at Israel's annual Jerusalem Day march, with some Jewish Israelis attacking Palestinians and journalists.
ABC reporter Allyson Horn, who was abused at the scene, says the ongoing Israel-Gaza war has spurred hostilities to a different level at this year’s event.
Even before the march began, confrontations erupted inside the Old City, with groups of young right-wing Jews attacking Palestinians and journalists.
Meredith Whittaker (Präsidetin von Signal, @Mer__edith) hat den Helmut-Schmidt-#Zukunftspreis 2024 gewonnen. In ihrer Preisrede spricht sie über die Gefahren der aktuellen #KI-Entwicklung.

"You can’t seek to curb the voices of critics of Israel, stay quiet about an Australian murdered by the IDF, isolate and punish pro-Palestinian MPs, and preside over handing nearly a billion dollars to a company complicit in the slaughter of Palestinians, and then complain about the Greens attacking you.
