Anti-government protests continue on Jerusalem’s Azza Street throughout the day and night, bolstered by protesters arriving from Haifa in the morning. Singer Achinoam Nini joined the drummers in the evening near the prime minister’s private residence, where the protests have taken place every night.
The demonstrators chant, “We, the majority, have returned to the street!”
The louder, more raucous evening protest follows the silent Shift 101 sit-in participants who sat on the asphalt all afternoon, calling for the return of the hostages. Later, a “teach-in” about the law and the role of the attorney general was held in light of the unanimous cabinet vote yesterday in favor of a no-confidence motion against Attorney General Gali Baharav-Miara.
