Fox News
A group of anti-Israel demonstrators descended on an Orthodox Jewish neighborhood in Brooklyn on Tuesday leading to violent clashes and chaotic scenes, according to reports and video.
The protest was led by the anti-Israel "Pal-Awda" activist group, who said they were flooding Borough Park to demonstrate against the sale of "stolen Palestinian land," according to the group’s Instagram account. They said they were targeting an event that was selling real estate in Israel. Michael Dorgan is a writer for Fox News Digital and Fox Business.

The crowd separated into three parts, according to the Times of Israel. The anti-Israel protesters and a group of pro-Israel counterprotesters gathered inside opposing barricades on the street while a crowd of Jewish residents watched from the opposite sidewalk. There was a heavy police presence.
