Clashes and demonstrations took place across Israel on Sunday as police raised alert levels nationwide amid a wave of anger over the deadly shooting of a young Arab-Israeli.
With shops, schools and business shuttered as Arab towns and villages observed a general strike, police raised the alert to one below the highest level and deployed in areas of friction, spokeswoman luba Samri said.
The protests began early Saturday after police shot dead a 22-year-old in Kfar Kana near the northern city of Nazareth. Kheir Hamdan was killed after he attacked police with a knife as they tried to arrest a relative.
