President Reuven Rivlin has condemned last night's attack by left-wing protesters from the Black Flags movement on a Channel 20 remote studio.
The studio was set up in Habima Square in Tel Aviv to cover the left-wing protest, and came under attack, with protesters interrupting the live broadcast.
"We must not let such a thing pass without comment," Rivlin said. "No journalist should feel that he needs to ask for security protection in order to do his job, no matter what his political leanings. This is not our way - this is not the way of the Jewish People."
