Policewomen attacked for telling man to wear a mask

Two policewomen were struck in their faces on Wednesday morning while they were patrolling public transport, enforcing COVID-19 restrictions in Jerusalem.

The policewomen found a 21-year-old man who was not wearing his mask and told him to put one on, at which point the man refused and began hitting the policewomen in their faces.

The man was taken into custody.

In another incident in Rishon Lezion, a man was fined for not wearing a mask and in retaliation, he was seen in a video, slashing the tires on the car belonging to the cop who fined him.
