Tuesday night, on the 2-year anniversary of the start of the Israeli-Hamas war, thirteen people were arrested and four Boston Police officers were injured during a Pro-Palestinian rally that was taking place on Boston Common, which then moved onto other nearby streets. Reports say that protesters were blocking the street, preventing officers from responding to another incident nearby, when the violence erupted. Boston Mayor Wu said the city will not tolerate the violence and that those arrested should be “prosecuted to the fullest extent of the law” for attacking police officers. Larry Calderone of the BPPA joined us to discuss.
