Dozens of demonstrators gathered outside Ofer Prison on Sunday to protest the release of Palestinian prisoners as part of the hostage deal.
Some protesters attempted to rush toward the prison compound and were stopped by police forces. Two individuals were arrested in the ensuing clashes, authorities confirmed.
The release of the prisoners, which is part of the agreement to secure the freedom of hostages held in Gaza, has sparked sharp criticism and public outcry in certain segments of Israeli society. Police are maintaining a heightened presence in the area to prevent further escalation.
