Israel warns ‘anti-Semitic Greta' Thunberg she won't make it to Gaza
Tear gas has been fired at protesters in Los Angeles when demonstrators closed in on National Guard troops hours after President Donald Trump's extraordinary deployment of the military. The confrontation broke out as hundreds of people protested in front of the Metropolitan Detention Centre in downtown Los Angeles, where several of the newly-arrived National Guard troops stood shoulder to shoulder behind plastic riot shields. Around 300 National Guard troops arrived in Los Angeles early Sunday (local time) on orders from Trump, who accused California Governor Gavin Newsom and other Democrats of failing to staunch recent protests targeting immigration agents. Video showed uniformed officers shooting off the smoke-filled canisters as they advanced into the street, forcing protesters to retreat. It was not immediately clear what prompted the use of chemical irritants or which law enforcement agency fired them. Minutes later, loud popping sounds erupted again, as some protesters chanted 'go home' and 'shame'. One person was taken to the ground by uniformed officers. Another appeared to be bleeding from their head.
