Fireworks fly into the sky at the end of the Independence Day ceremony marking Israel’s 75th birthday.

The ceremony ends without feared disruptions although several hundred people protest outside against the government.

Speakers repeatedly called for unity in Israel amid widespread divisions and anger over the government’s judicial overhaul plans.
