Tens of thousands of Jews gathered in Jerusalem on Thursday for the ‘flag march’. This nationalist demonstration marking the capture of the eastern part of the Holy City by Israel in 1967 is regularly marred by violence.
This year once more, the march is taking place in a context of very high tension: the Israeli-Palestinian conflict has already caused nearly 200 deaths since the beginning of the year, including 35 during a five-day war between the Israeli army and Palestinian armed groups in the Gaza Strip, from 9 to 13 May.
