Far-right Israeli National Security Minister Itamar Ben-Gvir faced unprecedented public hostility and intense protests while attempting to address a public gathering at Tel Aviv University. As Minister Ben-Gvir stepped onto the stage at the campus venue on Sunday (October 18, 2026), demonstrators erupted into chanting and created an uproar, Al Jazeera reported.
The situation escalated so rapidly that Ben-Gvir was forced to exit the venue under heavy security protection without delivering his planned address.
