Israel: IDF veterans organize pro-Kurdish protest

A pro-Kurdish protest organized by IDF ex-officers took place outside the Turkish Embassy in Tel Aviv following an official appeal to Defense and Prime Minister Netanyahu and to IDF Chief of Staff Aviv Kochavi.

Some 200 protesters gathered near the Turkish embassy and marched toward the American Embassy on Yarkon Street in Tel Aviv, accompanied by a representative of the Kurdish YPG.

"We, as and Zionists, have the moral obligation to stand by the Kurds. We cannot abandon our allies and we need to stand side by side...Israeli government could supply them (Kurds) with ammunition, Maj. (res.) Yair Fink told i24News.
