Police are tightening security in southern Tel Aviv amid possible demonstrations by Eritreans that could spark violence, repeating the events of last year. Authorities have deployed large forces amid fears that Eritrean groups in the area will unite and continue the conflict over the events in Eritrea. Violence and killings in the Eritrean community are the result of clashes between supporters and opponents of the regime in Eritrea, so police are carrying out additional operations to prevent possible incidents.
Last Saturday, a brawl involving Eritrean illegals broke out in a house of worship in southern Tel Aviv, leaving two dead and several injured. Also in early July, a mass brawl between Eritrean citizens occurred, where weapons were used and one person was killed. Police used special means to stop the conflict and prevent further clashes.
September 2023 was marked by mass riots in Tel Aviv involving supporters and opponents of the Eritrean regime. Fights and pogroms resulted in casualties among migrants and police officers, and the destruction of buildings. The authorities are now taking steps to prevent a recurrence of such events and to ensure security in the area.
