Thousands of people have begun protesting in Tamra, just north-east of Haifa, against the continuation of Operation Protective Edge in the Gaza Strip. The protest was organized by various Islamic Palestinian movements and those partaking were seen waving Palestinian flags and holding up pictures of people killed in Gaza. The protesters were heard shouting "Saja'iyya will win" and "El-Sisi is a traitor, he's a partner in the siege".
