Israeli Prime Minister Benjamin Netanyahu declared a state of emergency in the city of Lod late Tuesday after mass riots broke out amid escalating hostilities between Israel and Hamas, according to local reports.
Netanyahu visited the mixed Jewish-Arab town overnight on Tuesday, decrying the “anarchy” in the streets that left 12 people injured, Israeli newspaper Haaretz reported.
“It’s anarchy from rioters that we cannot accept,” he said, adding, “Without the rule of law, there is nothing.”
Thousands of mourners joined a funeral in Lod for an Arab man killed by a suspected Jewish gunman the previous night.
