Rothschild protest encampment is cleared

The Rothschild Boulevard protest encampment was cleared and the surrounding roads re-opened to traffic on Monday afternoon. 
Earlier Monday, the Tel Aviv District Court rejected an urgent request filed earlier on in the day by sixteen members of the Rothschild Boulevard protest encampment, who had asked for an injunction to delay evacuation of a section of the protest tents.
Tel Aviv tent cities on Levinsky Street, Nordau Boulevard and Ben-Gurion Boulevard were also evacuated on Monday morning.
