Muhannad Tutunji, Haitham Abudiab and their BBC Arabic team were driving to a hotel when their car was intercepted.

They were dragged from the vehicle - marked "TV" in red tape - searched and pushed against a wall.

A BBC spokesperson said journalists "must be able to report on the conflict in Israel-Gaza freely".

Mr Tutunji and Mr Abudiab said they identified themselves as BBC journalists and showed police their press ID cards.

While attempting to film the incident, Mr Tutunji said his phone was thrown on the ground and he was struck on the neck.

"One of our BBC News Arabic teams deployed in Tel Aviv, in a vehicle clearly marked as media, was stopped and assaulted last night by Israeli police. Journalists must be able to report on the conflict in Israel-Gaza freely," a BBC spokesperson said.

The BBC has contacted Israeli police for comment.

One million people can’t move anywhere in 48 hours with no warning. And you know it. What a lying piece of shit you are, defending genocide.

Is it impossible for you to have a conversation without swearing at the other party, you've responded to me twice recently and in both instances you have been thoroughly unpleasant rather than raising any opposing arguments.

Tone policing instead of asking a question is worse.

It's not tone policing to expect people to be able to hold a civilised conversation. Within a few replys that poster had sworn at me several times and accused me or being a fascist and a Nazi. I gave him a chance to talk to me like an adult, he declined so I blocked him.

Do you take issue with people having uncivilised discussions, more so than you’re willing converse on Israel’s uncivilised and what essentially is looking like war crime actions?

Why should people be civilised and when you’re defending a government, that is orders of magnitude stronger than it’s enemy, is murdering innocent people as an act of revenge.

I find your outrage at the comments egregious and abhorrent.
