Sydney braces for mass protests during Israeli president's visit

Thousands of protesters are expected to demonstrate in Sydney during Israeli President Isaac Herzog's visit, prompting the deployment of 500 police officers and a ring of steel around the city. Anti-Israel activists have launched Supreme Court action to challenge extraordinary police powers introduced after the Bondi Beach terror attack. Police will allow static assemblies but have banned mobile processions through the city, with negotiations ongoing about protest locations between Town Hall and Hyde Park.See omnystudio.com/listener for privacy information.See omnystudio.com/listener for privacy information.
