Border fighter sprayed pepper spray on her face this evening (Tuesday) and was lightly injured during a protest on Bar Ilan Road in Jerusalem. The

headquarters of the struggle against the light rail works stated that "in stark contrast to the statement of the police spokeswoman, no violence was used by the demonstrators and the police acted on an illusory scale against the demonstrators already at the beginning of the demonstration.

The demonstrators of the ultra-Orthodox community did not use gas against the police, a fundamentally false police statement.

Testimony from the field indicates that the policewoman fell during a chase after passers-by as part of the dispersal of the demonstration. "

The struggle headquarters also said that "this is an attempt to throw sand in the eyes of the public and the media in order to discredit the demonstrators, and to justify the excessive use of violence and hallucinations, which were used immediately after the demonstration began."
