For the 23rd week in a row, hundreds of thousands of Israelis have demonstrated against the planned “judicial reforms” that the Netanyahu government wants to implement.

On March 27, Netanyahu announced the suspension of plans to allow dialogue a chance, after an intensification of protests and the start of a general strike, and rising tensions within the ruling coalition.

Demonstrators protested, demanding that the plan be scrapped completely. (T/RE1)
