Live TV shows Israeli mob attack motorist they believed to be an Arab

Far-right crowd in Tel Aviv pull man they thought to be an Arab from his car and beat him in the street

As airstrikes and rocket fire continued across Israel and Gaza, towns with mixed Jewish and Arab populations have been struck by some of the worst communal violence that Israel has seen in years.

Late on Wednesday a mob of far-right Israelis dragged a man they thought was an Arab from his car and beat him until he lay on the ground motionless and bloodied.
