Left-wing Israeli activists participated alongside Palestinian activists in raising the Palestinian flag during a demonstration organised on Friday in Jerusalem's Sheikh Jarrah neighborhood, Anadolu Agency reported.
The Israeli and Palestinian activists defied directives issued by Israeli National Security Minister Itamar Ben-Gvir on Sunday.

During the demonstration, many raised the Palestinian flag and demonstrators chanted against the Israeli occupation and its settlement projects.
Israeli MK of the Arab-Jewish communist party, the Democratic Front for Peace and Equality (Hadash), Ofer Cassif, wrapped himself in the Palestinian flag during the demonstration.
On Twitter, Israeli left-wing group Freedom for Jerusalem wrote: "We came, and we are still waving," referring to attending the demonstration in Jerusalem and raising the Palestinian flag.
