Former Israel Police chief Roni Alsheich speaks from the main stage at the anti-government protest in Tel Aviv.
Alsheich calls the government’s plan to overhaul the judicial a “regime revolution, which will transfer all power to the executive authority without any checks and balances, and allow the government to do whatever it pleases and show contempt for the law.”
Alsheich adds: “Don’t worry, we have a statesmanlike police [force] that will refuse to follow any clearly illegal orders.”
