A mass brawl broke out this evening (Wednesday) outside the Old Man and the Sea restaurant in the Jaffa port, after police forces arrived at the scene with a closure order for 30 days that employed and accommodated illegal residents.
During the delivery of the closure order, a fight broke out between the police and those present at the scene, at the end of which a 21-year-old worker was arrested for questioning.
During the police operation, evidence was gathered that the restaurant in Jaffa allegedly employed and lodged in the business and in an illegal residence of residents of the Palestinian Authority without permits to enter and / or work legally in Israel.
This is after a number of inspections at various times conducted by the police at the business this month.
