Haifa police raided an event organized by the Standing Together movement, instructing activists to remove a sign calling for Israel's withdrawal from Gaza. Officers entered the venue during the Jewish-Arab group's annual assembly, citing the need to check political messaging and threatening to shut down the event if they heard any 'provocation' from the stage. Organizers described the police actions as intimidation, emphasizing that the event was held in a private, rented space. Police denied confiscating any signs and stated their presence was for security and public order, but did not clarify whether they had ordered the removal of political messages. This incident follows previous attempts by Haifa police to restrict political expression at public gatherings, including the city's pride parade, which drew criticism and legal challenges.
