150-200 anti-Netanyahu protesters rally outside PM’s residence in Jerusalem
Some 150-200 people are protesting against Prime Minister Netanyahu outside his official residence in Jerusalem, according to Hebrew media estimates.
The Prime Minister’s Residence has been the center of ongoing protests against Netanyahu over his indictment on graft charges and handling of the coronavirus pandemic, drawing 10,000 to 20,000 demonstrators each week. However, under new emergency regulations limiting demonstrations during the current coronavirus lockdown, the weekly rally at Netanyahu’s residence is now capped at 2,000 protesters, who must maintain socially distanced “pods” of 20 people.
Demonstrators are also barred from traveling more than one kilometer from their homes.
