Protesters (as distinct from settlers) at a Gaza synagogue are being forcibly removed, and it appears that the protesters are using some type of chemical to repel the police (this chemical is being identified as "acid" by the Israeli police, as broadcast on CNN International - link).
Police officers were seen coming out of the synagogue in their underwear and being doused with water, and the reporter on the scene described a burning sensation in his eyes.
The protesters are being identified as having come to Gaza from elsewhere, such as the West Bank, as opposed to settlers that were removed from the synagogue earlier.
In this extremely difficult time for their nation, have these protesters in using some type of chemical agent to oppose the police given the enemies of Isreal a propaganda victory?
