Thousands of members of Toronto’s Jewish community marched downtown as part of an annual "Walk with Israel" event that unfolded amid heightened security and protests along the route.
March participants, who were expected to turn out in record numbers, waved Israeli flags and carried posters of those taken hostage during the Oct. 7 attack by Hamas that triggered the latest war with Israel.
Marchers encountered two groups of protesters within the first hour of the walk, with police making several arrests during clashes with Pro-Palestinian demonstrators.
Duelling chants of “free, free Palestine” and “bring them home” rang out when the groups crossed paths. Police officers formed barriers between the two groups and intervened in confrontations.
