A man has been ordered to stay away from an Israeli shop which was the subject of mass protests during the last Gaza conflict.

A two-year restraining order will prohibit David Addison, 47, from entering the area around Kedem Cosmetics in Manchester city centre until April 2018.

Mr Addison, from Burnley, was also told by Manchester and Salford Magistrates' Court that he must not make direct contact with three men associated with the shop, including its co-owner Zahi Surezki.

The restraining order was handed down by the court on Wednesday last week despite Mr Addison being found not guilty of one charge of harassment of Kedem staff and customers.
