Police planned to disperse Isaac Herzog protest in Sydney if crowd hit 6,000, encrypted messages suggest

According to released correspondence, police in New South Wales planned to disperse a Sydney protest against Israeli President Isaac Herzog's visit if the crowd exceeded 6,000 people. The messages, obtained through freedom of information laws, reveal this threshold for intervention. These internal communications between senior public servants contain information not previously disclosed in public statements by the NSW premier and police commissioner. The protest occurred during Herzog's visit to Sydney, and the documents suggest a pre-determined limit on the demonstration's size before police action would be taken. The reason for the 6,000-person limit was not specified in the provided information.
