Demonstrations against Prime Minister Benjamin Netanyahu’s government are also expected to take place tonight in Jerusalem, at the President’s Residence; in Haifa, at the Horev shopping center; Beer Sheva, near the municipality; as well as in Herzliya and Modi’in.
The demonstrations will mark the third week that opponents of Netanyahu’s government will take to the streets, protesting Justice Minister Yariv Levin’s proposals to shake up the judiciary by severely curbing the High Court of Justice’s judicial review powers and cementing political control over the appointment of judges.
