Demonstrations against Israeli Prime Minister Netanyahu’s judicial reform plan for the tenth weekNews WAALI

• Tens of thousands of Israelis took to the streets for the tenth consecutive week of protests against the judicial reform plans of Israeli Prime Minister Benjamin Netanyahu’s government.

According to the organizers, around 240,000 protesters demonstrated in front of the Israeli president’s house in Tel Aviv, while occupying Jerusalem. Protesters say Netanyahu’s judicial reforms will weaken the courts.

For more than two months, massive protests against the Israeli government’s plan to reform the judiciary have been ongoing.

Opposition politicians have reacted against this judicial reform plan. At the same time, there have been dire warnings from economists, business leaders, legal experts and security officials.
