Speaking at a protest rally in Tel Aviv, former prime minister Ehud Barak reiterates his call for civil disobedience, telling the crowd a mass strike is needed to bring down the government.
Barak tells thousands on Kaplan Street in Tel Aviv that what’s needed is “civil non-violent non-compliance.” When the Knesset returns from summer break, he says, “the revolt must be extended to a mass strike around the parliament together with opposition leaders until the government falls.”
