Eighty Palestinians and Anarchists burst into the Rami Levy supermarket in the Binyamin region (north of Jerusalem).

The demonstrators were waving Palestinian flags and blocking the entrance to both the  Binyamin Industrial Park where Rami Levy is located, as well as stopping traffic on Highway 60 which leads to it.
