Anti-government protesters are demonstrating on both sides of Kaplan Street in Tel Aviv, though their numbers are thinning out.

A few passersby have shouted down the demonstrators, but most of the cars driving down Kaplan are honking in sync with the protesters’ chants, calling for the removal of Prime Minister Benjamin Netanyahu.

Dani Danieli, who traveled from Jerusalem to Tel Aviv for tonight’s protest, said he prefers demonstrations in Tel Aviv to the “very pareve” Jerusalem protests.

“I prefer to be here because here they really shout, and signal to the right thing, in my opinion. In Jerusalem they say general things, and it’s not for me,” he says.
