Israeli Knesset member Naama Lazimi was reportedly injured amid the impact of the explosion of a stun grenade thrown by Israeli occupation police at demonstrators in Tel Aviv. 

On Monday night, Israeli settlers flooded Tel Aviv to protest Prime Minister Benjamin Netanyahu's handling of the war on Gaza, particularly after six Israeli captives died by Israeli gunfire during an IOF rescue attempt. 

Latest estimations show that almost 700,000 settlers participated in the protests across "Israel", with half a million of them blocking Kaplan Street, a major autoroute in central Tel Aviv. 

Lazimi, in a post on X, said that Israeli police threw a stun grenade at her and her counselor in a series of attacks against protesters allegedly standing on the sidelines and not clashing with police officers. 

תיעוד זריקת רימוני ההלם אל עבר ח״כ נעמה לזימי והיועצים שלה: בסרטון הבא ניתן לראות זריקת שני רימוני הלם לכיוון לזימי ויועציה כשהם נמצאים על אילון. היועצים, שירה פלג ואור שנייברג (בחולצה אדומה) קופצים אל עבר לזימי כדי להגן עליה לאחר שנזרק לכיוונם הרימון הראשון. לזימי נופלת על הרצפה… pic.twitter.com/9hCmQQYARA

"The grenades were thrown towards both sides where the demonstrators were standing in complete surprise and without any advance warning," she wrote. 

She went on to criticize the suppression of the protests by police, saying, "A police force that throws stun grenades at protesters from close range and without control is a police force that endangers public peace and harms public health intentionally and contrary to the law."

רימון הלם הושלך לעברי ואל עבר היועצת שלי עכשיו. נפלנו מהעוצמה והבהלה ואז היה פיצוץ נוסף שהיה קרוב וכמעט פגע בנו ישירות.
שוטרת שקלטה את האירוע את החבלה מהנפילה ואת ההלם שלנו משכה אותנו מהרימון במהירות. בנס לא קרה משהו נורא יותר מכמה חבלות יבשות.
משטרה שמשליכה רימוני הלם אל עבר…
