(Updated) Up to 200 protesters ranging from kaffiyeh-clad pro-Palestine activists to yarmulke-wearing pro-Israel Jews gathered at the intersection of Orange and Trumbull streets Wednesday evening to protest the arrival of far right-wing Israeli National Security Minister Itamar Ben-Gvir to address a Jewish student society called Shabtai.
