New York police are investigating the attack of a Brooklyn woman harassed last week by a pro-Israeli group of men in an encounter captured on multiple videos, which has incited demonstrations and condemnation from religious groups.

An appearance by Itamar Ben-Gvir set off clashes between pro-Palestinian activists and members of the neighborhood's large Orthodox Jewish community.

After a protest at a Brooklyn synagogue where a far-right Israeli official had spoken, a woman said pro-Israel counterprotesters verbally and physically abused her as she walked by.
