Over one thousand Jerusalemites are gathering outside the President’s Residence in the capital, bundled in winter coats and hats, waving Israeli flags and placards, calling for the president, Isaac Herzog, to emerge.

“Bougie, wake up, the house is burning,” the demonstrators chant, referring to the president by his nickname.

“Bougie Bougie, wake up, the public is worth more.”

The protest comes as thousands hold anti-government protests in Tel Aviv and Haifa
