Tension and Fear Surround Jerusalem's First Pride Parade Under Right-Wing Government

TL;DR Summary
The Jerusalem Pride Parade, which kicks off LGBTQ pride month on June 1, is facing even more opposition than usual due to the presence of two government officials who have opposed it in the past. Threats against the parade have been identified on social media, and police have deployed over 2,000 officers to ensure the safety of participants. The parade's survival has been due to Supreme Court intervention, as religious parties have attempted to ban it in the past.
