Israelis Rally in Three Cities Against Netanyahu Legal Reforms, Over 80,000 Israelis protest in Tel Aviv, protestors attempt to block highway
Tens of thousands of Israelis demonstrated in three major cities on Saturday against Prime Minister Benjamin Netanyahu’s judicial reform plans, with organisers accusing him of undermining democratic rule weeks after his reelection.
The protest’s organizers later said that, according to their estimations, over 100,000 Israelis attended the demonstration at Habima Square.
During the protest in Jerusalem, police officers reportedly arrested protesters who flew Palestinian flags, footage shared on Twitter by left-wing activist group Free Jerusalem shows.
This comes after National Security Minister Itamar Ben-Gvir ordered the police to remove any Palestinian flags flown in public spaces.
