Jerusalem (CNN) Israel's Acting Police Commissioner has ordered police to move in and break up demonstrations by members of Israel's Ethiopian community and its supporters, after a series of protests turned violent Tuesday evening. Police say 47 officers were injured, and 60 people were arrested, as protesters attacked police and civilians. A member of Israel's Ethiopian community argues with a policeman in the coastal city of Netanya on July 2. Video distributed by police shows a number of cars on fire. Another video widely shared on social media shows an angry mob jumping on a car and trying to smash its windows as it drives down the street.
