Pressure movement against Israel in Thailand gains momentum as it combines with street protests

A protest of more than 500 people swept through Patong on Friday, forcing the cancellation of a major Rosh Hashanah gathering at Chabad House. Marchers carried anti-Israel signs and chanted “Free Palestine” as police sealed off the premises and managed traffic. The demonstration followed days of pressure over Jewish events, foreign-linked businesses, landholding and Israeli visitors. It also widened a campaign linked to veteran protest leader Sondhi Limthongkul, while separate action against a Jewish cemetery added further momentum.

More than 500 protesters marched through Patong on Friday as opposition to Israeli and Jewish-linked activities intensified in Phuket. The protest targeted Chabad House and coincided with planned Jewish New Year celebrations in the resort city. Meanwhile, the main Rosh Hashanah gathering was cancelled at the last minute amid mounting security concerns.

The demonstration brought together the Save Phuket group and allied networks of Thai Buddhists and Muslims. Save Phuket is also known as the Phuket Land Protection Group. Protesters began gathering at Dolphin Roundabout on Patong Beach at about 4 pm on September 11. From there, they marched towards Chabad House on Rat-U-Thit 200 Pi Road.

The route took demonstrators through one of Phuket’s busiest international tourist areas. Notably, protesters carried placards bearing the message “SAVE PHUKET NO ISRAEL”. Some participants also chanted “Free Palestine” as the column moved through Patong. Despite persistent rain, the march continued and numbers eventually climbed above 500.

Akkhrawut Kraisisombat travelled from Bangkok and arrived at the demonstration at about 5 pm. Soon afterwards, he addressed protesters from a rally truck as the gathering continued in the rain. He urged participants to demonstrate their strength and stand firm. His appeal drew cheers from the crowd.

In parallel, police and administrative officials closely monitored the march towards Chabad House. Personnel from Patong Police Station were deployed throughout the surrounding area. Local administrative officers also joined the operation. Their duties included maintaining public order, assisting the public and managing traffic.

Additionally, officials sought to prevent disturbances and minimise disruption to residents and tourists. The protest was unfolding inside one of Phuket’s most important tourism centres. Hotels, tourism businesses and local traffic surrounded the protest route. Consequently, police maintained a visible presence as the demonstrators advanced.

The crowd eventually reached Chabad House on Rat-U-Thit 200 Pi Road. There, administrative officers formed a line outside the premises. The Kathu district chief also opened negotiations with protest coordinators. Protesters were told they could not enter Chabad House.

Protesters face public assembly restrictions after days of pressure over Jewish New Year events in Patong

Furthermore, demonstrators were instructed not to obstruct traffic and had to comply with public assembly rules. Police and administrative personnel remained deployed while negotiations continued. Despite the large turnout, no serious disorder was reported. The gathering subsequently ended peacefully.

However, Friday’s march followed several days of mounting pressure over planned Rosh Hashanah celebrations in Patong. Three days earlier, the Phuket Land Protection Group had formally demanded official intervention. Representatives submitted a written request at Phuket Provincial Hall on September 8.

The letter was addressed to Phuket Governor Chotinrin Kerdsum. Siwat Rawangkul received it on the governor’s behalf. At the time, Mr Siwat served as Mueang Phuket District Chief and Acting Phuket Provincial Palad.

Specifically, the complaint challenged Rosh Hashanah celebrations scheduled from September 11 until September 13. Events were originally planned at Chabad House Patong and the Novotel Phuket Resort. Police expected about 1,000 people to attend. Yet the Phuket Land Protection Group demanded further scrutiny before the celebrations proceeded.

Group representative Saichol Nuchet asked officials to investigate the organisers and venues. He also sought checks on expected attendance and security arrangements. In particular, the group cited security concerns connected with the continuing Middle East conflict.

Save Phuket cites security risks while supporters display anti-Jewish signs during complaint in Phuket

According to its submission, a large gathering could potentially become a target. Alternatively, the group warned that third parties could attempt to disrupt proceedings. Siamphong Kongrach, the village headman of Kamala, also attended the submission.

Mr Siamphong said the group had received complaints from local residents. As a result, it wanted officials to assess possible consequences for surrounding communities. The group also raised potential effects on tourists and public safety. Likewise, representatives cited possible consequences for Phuket’s reputation as an international tourist destination.

The group maintained that its objections were not based on religion, nationality or race. Rather, representatives said security and possible impacts on Phuket were their concerns. However, some supporters standing beside Mr Saichol carried substantially stronger messages.

One supporter displayed a sign reading “No Jews… Get Out”. Another carried the message “No Israel”. At the same time, the group opposed celebrations at Chabad House and hotels in the area. It asked provincial officials to consider measures aimed at preventing possible disturbances.

In response, Mr Siwat said the concerns would be discussed with the governor and relevant security agencies. He said officials would handle the matter within the legal framework. Public safety would also be considered.

Police prepare 50 officers as Phuket officials reject calls to prohibit private Rosh Hashanah celebrations

Separately, police had already started preparing for the Jewish New Year celebrations. Around 50 uniformed and plainclothes officers were due to provide security. Administrative officials were also assigned to the operation.

Initially, police said no officially organised protest against the celebrations had been identified. Even so, officers continued monitoring developments as opposition increased. Police also reported no specific threat against the Rosh Hashanah celebrations.

Importantly, the celebrations were planned for private property. Therefore, police said they did not require permission as public events. Nevertheless, the organisers requested police assistance. That support covered security, traffic management and emergency response.

On another front, pressure against the celebrations continued building. Provincial officials initially declined demands to stop the events. They concluded there were insufficient grounds to prohibit the private religious gathering. Instead, police reinforcements were prepared and officials planned to separate protesters from participants.

As part of this, negotiations produced significant changes to the original Rosh Hashanah arrangements. Initially, about 1,000 Jewish residents and visitors were expected across two venues. The plans were then reduced to one venue. Attendance was also capped at 800 people.

Main Rosh Hashanah gathering is cancelled as hundreds of protesters march towards Chabad House in Patong

The reduced gathering was scheduled from 4 pm until 9 pm on Friday. By then, however, opposition had moved from formal complaints towards a major street demonstration. The security picture changed sharply as Friday’s march approached.

Ultimately, the main Rosh Hashanah gathering was cancelled at the last minute amid security concerns. A message was sent to registered participants. It warned that the protest could become violent and instructed recipients not to approach the area.

Israeli reporting linked the cancellation to concerns raised by Israeli security officials. At roughly the same time, hundreds of protesters were moving through Patong towards Chabad House. Thai reporting recorded demonstrators reaching Rat-U-Thit 200 Pi Road.

At that point, administrative officials maintained a line outside the premises. The Kathu district chief negotiated directly with protest coordinators. Demonstrators remained outside Chabad House and were prohibited from entering. They were also told not to obstruct traffic.

Meanwhile, people registered for the main celebration had already been warned to stay away. The mass holiday gathering was therefore cancelled while the street demonstration continued. Police remained deployed around the area. Eventually, protesters dispersed without serious disorder.

Earlier Patong rally broadens into campaign over Israeli visitors, foreign businesses, land and Chabad

Friday’s confrontation was not Save Phuket’s first protest in Patong. On August 28, the Phuket Land Protection Group organised another rally at Loma Park. That demonstration also remained peaceful. However, some participants displayed posters depicting the Israeli flag engulfed in flames.

A Palestinian flag was also displayed on stage despite police warnings. Subsequently, the campaign continued and its focus broadened. Save Phuket and associated campaigners raised concerns about foreign businesses, land ownership and security.

Beyond that, campaigners questioned the conduct of some foreign visitors and effects on local communities. Chabad House and Israeli-linked activities increasingly became part of that campaign. The movement therefore connected several separate issues during rallies and public statements.

These included Israeli visitors, foreign-linked businesses, landholding and local security. Chabad organisations also became a growing focus. Some campaign supporters displayed explicitly anti-Jewish messages. Even so, group representatives maintained that religion, race and nationality were not the campaign’s basis.

Instead, representatives repeatedly cited security, foreign activities and local interests. The Phuket dispute also became connected with developments elsewhere in Thailand. Mr Saichol publicly commented on official action involving a Jewish cemetery in Chachoengsao.

On September 7, Chachoengsao Governor Chatpra-orn Niyom ordered action at the cemetery in Bang Khla. Officials ordered structures removed and remains relocated within seven days. The order followed findings concerning the cemetery’s operating licence.

The licence had expired and had not been renewed. However, the operator challenged the licensing decision through the Administrative Court. Mr Saichol subsequently shared a social media post concerning the order.

“This is it! Decisive action prioritising the benefit of the nation,” he wrote. His intervention came one day before the Phuket group submitted its complaint against the Rosh Hashanah celebrations.

Elsewhere on Phuket, another religious event had recently received local government financial support. The Mai Khao Tambon Administrative Organisation supported the 20th annual Mawlid fair. The local body provided ฿700,000 in public funds.

The three-day Islamic religious and cultural gathering marked the Hijri New Year. It included religious ceremonies, lectures, study sessions and performances. In addition, local officials and Muslim religious leaders attended the event.

Sondhi-linked Bangkok protest feeds Phuket campaign as more than 500 march towards Chabad House in Patong

Against this backdrop, pressure surrounding Chabad House intensified throughout the week. The Phuket dispute also became linked with a separate Bangkok protest on Thursday. Veteran street protest leader Sondhi Limthongkul was connected with the widening campaign following that demonstration.

The Bangkok gathering took place outside the Israeli Embassy. There, demonstrators raised concerns about Israeli visitors and foreign influence. They also connected those concerns with foreign land ownership and suspected nominee businesses. Claims involving Chabad organisations also formed part of the protest.

Later, Israeli reporting said Sondhi travelled to Phuket following Thursday’s demonstration. By Friday afternoon, hundreds of protesters were assembling at Patong Beach. Heavy rain failed to stop the gathering. More than 500 participants eventually joined the protest.

They marched from Dolphin Roundabout towards Chabad House carrying anti-Israel placards. Along the way, some participants chanted “Free Palestine”. Police and administrative officials tracked the march through central Patong.

Because of the location, traffic management became a significant part of the security operation. The route ran through an area packed with hotels and tourism businesses. Officers sought to keep roads moving while preventing disturbances.

Police keep protesters outside Chabad House after Rosh Hashanah event is cut from 1,000 to 800 guests

Once the march reached Chabad House, administrative officers maintained separation outside the premises. The Kathu district chief then dealt directly with protest coordinators. Police continued managing traffic while keeping demonstrators outside.

By contrast, the planned Rosh Hashanah celebration had already undergone substantial changes. Around 1,000 participants were initially expected across two venues. Following official discussions, that became one venue with an 800-person limit.

Still, even the reduced main gathering did not proceed as planned. Registered participants instead received a warning to stay away. The Save Phuket march was already heading towards Chabad House.

Three days earlier, campaigners had asked the governor to intervene. At that stage, provincial officials found no legal basis to prohibit the private gathering. Police had also reported no specific threat against the celebrations.

Accordingly, officials initially chose increased security rather than cancellation. Additional police were prepared and traffic measures were arranged. Officials also intended to keep protesters and participants separated.

More than 500 protesters reach Chabad House as cancelled Jewish New Year event marks Patong escalation

By Friday, circumstances on the ground had changed. More than 500 protesters assembled before marching through central Patong. Anti-Israel signs were carried openly through the international tourist district. Some demonstrators also chanted “Free Palestine” while persistent rain fell.

Simultaneously, the main Jewish New Year gathering was cancelled amid security concerns. Demonstrators then reached Chabad House under close official supervision. Administrative officers formed a line outside while the Kathu district chief negotiated with organisers.

Throughout the confrontation, police kept protesters outside and sought to maintain traffic flows. The demonstrators eventually dispersed without serious disorder. Yet the planned mass Rosh Hashanah gathering had not taken place.

The outcome marked a significant escalation from the August 28 Save Phuket rally. More significantly, the campaign had moved directly to the entrance of Chabad House in central Patong.

By Friday evening, more than 500 protesters had marched through Phuket’s busiest tourist district. Police had contained the demonstration without serious disorder. The large Jewish New Year gathering scheduled for that afternoon, however, had been cancelled.

在生活、媒体、政治、泰国

周五，超过500人的抗议活动席卷芭东，迫使查巴德中心取消了一场重要的犹太新年（Rosh Hashanah）集会。游行者高举反以色列标语，高喊“自由巴勒斯坦”，警方封锁了查巴德中心并疏导交通。此前数日，针对犹太活动、与外国有关联的企业、土地持有以及以色列游客等问题，抗议活动持续施压。此次示威活动也扩大了与资深抗议领袖桑迪·林通库尔（Sondhi Limthongkul）相关的运动，而针对一座犹太公墓的另一项行动则进一步推动了抗议活动。

周五，超过500名抗议者在普吉岛芭东举行游行，反对以色列和犹太相关活动的呼声日益高涨。此次抗议的目标是查巴德中心，恰逢该度假城市计划举行的犹太新年庆祝活动。与此同时，由于安全隐患不断增加，主要的犹太新年庆祝活动在最后一刻被取消。

此次示威活动汇集了“拯救普吉岛”组织及其泰国佛教徒和穆斯林盟友。“拯救普吉岛”又名“普吉岛土地保护组织”。抗议者于9月11日下午4点左右开始在芭东海滩的海豚环岛集结。随后，他们向位于拉乌提路200号的查巴德中心进发。

游行队伍途经普吉岛最繁忙的国际旅游区之一。值得注意的是，抗议者举着写有“拯救普吉岛，不要以色列”的标语牌。一些参与者在队伍穿过芭东时还高喊“解放巴勒斯坦”。尽管持续下雨，游行仍在继续，最终参与人数超过500人。

阿克拉武特召集了 500 名抗议者，警方护送他们穿过芭东前往查巴德会馆。

阿克拉武特·克莱西松巴特从曼谷赶来，于下午5点左右抵达示威现场。随后，他登上了一辆集会卡车，在雨中向示威者发表讲话。他呼吁参与者展现力量，坚定立场。他的呼吁赢得了人群的欢呼。

与此同时，警方和行政官员密切监控着前往查巴德中心的游行队伍。芭东警察局的警力部署在周边地区。当地行政官员也参与了行动。他们的职责包括维护公共秩序、协助民众和疏导交通。

此外，官员们努力防止骚乱，并将对居民和游客的影响降至最低。抗议活动发生在普吉岛最重要的旅游中心之一。酒店、旅游企业和当地交通拥堵，将抗议路线包围。因此，随着示威者的推进，警方保持了明显的警戒。

人群最终抵达位于拉特乌提特200路（Rat-U-Thit 200 Pi Road）的查巴德中心。行政官员在中心外排成一列。卡图区区长也与抗议协调员展开谈判。抗议者被告知他们不得进入查巴德中心。

在芭东犹太新年活动引发数日抗议压力后，抗议者面临公共集会限制。

此外，示威者被告知不得阻碍交通，并须遵守集会规则。谈判期间，警方和行政人员仍部署在现场。尽管参与人数众多，但未发生严重骚乱。集会最终和平结束。

然而，周五的游行是在芭东地区计划举行的犹太新年庆祝活动引发数日压力之后发生的。三天前，普吉岛土地保护组织正式要求官方介入。该组织代表于9月8日向普吉府政府递交了书面请求。

这封信是写给普吉府府尹乔廷林·克尔德苏姆的。西瓦特·拉旺库尔先生代府尹接收了这封信。当时，西瓦特先生担任普吉府府尹兼普吉府代理府尹。

具体而言，该投诉对原定于9月11日至13日举行的犹太新年庆祝活动提出质疑。活动最初计划在芭东查巴德中心和普吉岛诺富特度假酒店举行。警方预计将有约1000人参加。然而，普吉岛土地保护组织要求在庆祝活动举行前进行进一步审查。

该组织代表赛乔尔·努切特要求官员调查组织者和场地。他还要求核实预计出席人数和安保安排。该组织特别提到了与持续不断的中东冲突相关的安全隐患。

“拯救普吉岛”组织声称存在安全风险，而支持者在普吉岛抗议期间却展示反犹太标语。

根据该组织提交的材料，大型集会可能成为攻击目标。此外，该组织还警告说，第三方可能会试图扰乱会议进程。卡马拉村村长西安蓬·孔拉赫也出席了此次提交活动。

西安蓬先生表示，该团体已收到当地居民的投诉。因此，他们希望官员评估此举可能对周边社区造成的影响。该团体还提出了对游客和公共安全的潜在影响。同样，代表们也提到了此举可能对普吉岛作为国际旅游胜地的声誉造成的影响。

该团体坚称，他们的反对并非基于宗教、国籍或种族。相反，代表们表示，他们担心的是安全问题以及可能对普吉岛造成的影响。然而，站在赛乔尔先生身边的一些支持者则表达了更为强烈的诉求。

一名支持者举着一块牌子，上面写着“犹太人滚出去”。另一名支持者则举着“反对以色列”的标语。与此同时，该团体反对在查巴德中心和该地区的酒店举行庆祝活动。他们要求省政府官员考虑采取措施，以防止可能发生的骚乱。

对此，西瓦特先生表示，将与州长和相关安全机构讨论这些问题。他表示，官员们将在法律框架内处理此事，同时也会考虑公共安全。

普吉岛官员拒绝禁止私人庆祝犹太新年（Rosh Hashanah）的呼吁，警方已部署50名警力。

此外，警方已开始为犹太新年庆祝活动做准备。约50名身着制服和便衣的警员将负责安保工作。行政官员也参与了此次行动。

警方最初表示，尚未发现任何正式组织的反对庆祝活动。尽管如此，随着反对声浪的增加，警方仍持续关注事态发展。警方同时报告称，目前尚未发现针对犹太新年庆祝活动的具体威胁。

重要的是，庆祝活动是在私人土地上举行的。因此，警方表示，他们无需像公共活动那样获得许可。尽管如此，组织者还是请求了警方协助。警方提供的协助包括安保、交通管理和应急响应。

另一方面，反对庆祝活动的压力持续增加。省政府官员最初拒绝了停止活动的呼吁。他们认为没有足够的理由禁止这场私人宗教集会。相反，警方增派了警力，官员们计划将抗议者与参与者隔离开来。

作为其中的一部分，谈判对原定的犹太新年（Rosh Hashanah）安排做出了重大调整。最初，预计约有1000名犹太居民和游客在两个场地庆祝新年。后来，场地缩减至一个，出席人数也限制在800人以内。

由于数百名抗议者游行前往芭东的查巴德会堂，主要的犹太新年集会被取消。

规模缩小的集会原定于周五下午4点至晚上9点举行。然而，到那时，反对派的行动已从正式抗议转向大规模街头示威。随着周五游行的临近，安全形势急剧变化。

最终，出于安全考虑，主要的犹太新年庆祝活动在最后一刻被取消。主办方向已注册的参与者发送了通知，警告抗议活动可能演变为暴力事件，并指示收件人不要靠近该区域。

以色列方面的报道将此次活动取消与以色列安全官员提出的担忧联系起来。几乎与此同时，数百名抗议者正穿过芭东向查巴德中心进发。泰国方面的报道记录到，示威者抵达了拉乌提路200号。

当时，行政官员在会场外设立了警戒线。卡图区区长直接与抗议协调员进行谈判。示威者被禁止进入查巴德会堂，并被告知不得阻碍交通。

与此同时，已登记参加主要庆祝活动的人员已被警告不要前往。因此，大型节日集会被取消，而街头示威活动仍在继续。警方仍部署在周边地区。最终，示威者在没有发生严重骚乱的情况下散去。

早前芭东集会演变成一场针对以色列游客、外国企业、土地和哈巴德运动的运动。

周五的冲突并非“拯救普吉岛”组织在芭东的首次抗议活动。8月28日，普吉岛土地保护组织在洛玛公园组织了另一次集会。那次示威活动也保持了和平。然而，一些参与者展示了描绘以色列国旗被火焰吞噬的海报。

尽管警方发出警告，舞台上仍然展示了一面巴勒斯坦国旗。随后，这场运动继续进行，并扩大了关注范围。“拯救普吉岛”及其相关活动人士对外国企业、土地所有权和安全问题表示担忧。

除此之外，活动人士还质疑一些外国访客的行为及其对当地社区的影响。哈巴德中心和与以色列有关的活动日益成为这场运动的一部分。因此，该运动在集会和公开声明中将几个不同的问题联系起来。

这些目标包括以色列游客、与外国有关联的企业、土地所有者和地方安全部门。哈巴德组织也日益成为关注焦点。一些运动支持者展示了明确的反犹信息。即便如此，各团体代表仍坚称，宗教、种族和国籍并非该运动的出发点。

相反，各方代表反复提及安全问题、外国活动和当地利益。普吉岛争端也与泰国其他地区的事态发展联系起来。赛乔尔先生就涉及北柳府犹太公墓的官方行动发表了公开评论。

9月7日，北柳府府尹查普拉翁·尼永下令对邦克拉公墓采取行动。官员们要求在七天内拆除墓地建筑并迁移遗骸。此前，有关部门对该公墓的运营许可证进行了调查。

墓地许可证过期引发拆除令，经营者已向法院提起诉讼，质疑许可证颁发决定。

该许可证已过期且未续期。然而，运营商通过行政法院对该许可证颁发决定提出质疑。随后，赛乔尔先生在社交媒体上发布了有关该裁决的帖子。

“就是这样！采取果断行动，优先考虑国家利益，”他写道。就在他介入的前一天，普吉岛团体就犹太新年庆祝活动提交了投诉。

在普吉岛的其他地方，另一项宗教活动近期也获得了当地政府的财政支持。迈考镇行政组织为第二十届年度圣纪节集市提供了资助。该地方政府提供了70万泰铢的公共资金。

为期三天的伊斯兰宗教文化盛会庆祝了伊斯兰历新年。活动内容包括宗教仪式、讲座、学习会和表演。此外，当地官员和穆斯林宗教领袖也出席了此次活动。

与桑迪有关的曼谷抗议活动为普吉岛的行动提供了支持，超过500人游行前往芭东的查巴德中心。

在此背景下，围绕查巴德中心的压力在一周内不断加剧。普吉岛的争议也与周四在曼谷发生的另一场抗议活动联系起来。资深街头抗议领袖桑迪·林通库尔也参与了那场示威活动后不断扩大的运动。

曼谷的集会地点位于以色列大使馆外。示威者在那里表达了对以色列访客和外国影响力的担忧，并将这些担忧与外国土地所有权和疑似代持企业联系起来。涉及哈巴德组织的指控也成为抗议活动的一部分。

随后，以色列媒体报道称，桑迪在周四的示威活动后前往普吉岛。到周五下午，数百名抗议者聚集在芭东海滩。尽管下着大雨，但集会并未停止。最终，超过500人参加了抗议活动。

他们从海豚环岛出发，举着反以色列标语牌，向查巴德中心进发。沿途一些参与者高喊“解放巴勒斯坦”。警方和行政官员在芭东中心地带跟踪了游行队伍。

由于地理位置特殊，交通管理成为安保行动的重要组成部分。这条路线穿过酒店和旅游企业林立的区域。警员们力求在确保道路畅通的同时，防止发生骚乱。

犹太新年活动规模从 1000 人缩减至 800 人后，警方将抗议者挡在 Chabad House 外。

游行队伍抵达查巴德中心后，行政人员在中心外维持秩序。卡图地区行政长官随后直接与抗议协调员交涉。警方继续疏导交通，并将示威者挡在中心外。

相比之下，原计划的犹太新年庆祝活动已经发生了重大变化。最初预计约有1000名参与者在两个场地举行。经过官方讨论，最终改为在一个场地举行，人数上限为800人。

然而，即便规模缩小的主集会也未能按计划进行。已注册的参与者反而收到了远离集会的警告。“拯救普吉岛”游行队伍当时已经向查巴德中心进发。

三天前，活动人士曾请求省长介入。当时，省政府官员认为没有法律依据禁止这场私人集会。警方也未报告任何针对庆祝活动的具体威胁。

因此，官方最初选择加强安保而非取消活动。警方增派了警力，并安排了交通管制措施。官方还计划将抗议者和参与者隔离开来。

超过500名抗议者抵达查巴德中心，取消的犹太新年活动标志着芭东冲突升级

到了周五，现场情况发生了变化。超过500名抗议者聚集起来，随后游行穿过芭东市中心。反以色列标语被公开举过国际旅游区。一些示威者在持续降雨中高喊“自由巴勒斯坦”。

与此同时，出于安全考虑，主要的犹太新年聚会被取消。示威者随后在官方严密监视下抵达查巴德中心。行政官员在中心外列队，而卡图区负责人则与组织者进行谈判。

冲突期间，警方将示威者挡在门外，并努力维持交通畅通。示威者最终在没有发生严重骚乱的情况下散去。然而，原定的犹太新年大型集会并未举行。

此次事件标志着事态较8月28日的“拯救普吉岛”集会显著升级。更重要的是，抗议活动直接蔓延至芭东中心地带的查巴德中心入口。

截至周五晚间，已有超过500名抗议者游行穿过普吉岛最繁忙的旅游区。警方控制了示威活动，未发生严重骚乱。然而，原定于当天下午举行的大型犹太新年庆祝活动已被取消。
