A group of protesters opposed to the government’s planned judicial overhaul block Tel Aviv’s central Ayalon highway, as evening traffic is at its peak.

The demonstrators gather on the road after a rally outside the home of Likud MK Boaz Bismuth in the adjacent city of Ramat Gan.

Bismuth earlier this week vowed to push forward the contentious legislation “step by step.”

The protesters clear the highway after around 30 minutes.
