Judicial overhaul backers to rally in Tel Aviv this evening; several roads to be closed

Police will close a number of roads in Tel Aviv tonight for a demonstration by backers of the government’s judicial overhaul.

The protesters plan to march from the Tel Aviv Museum of Art to the government complex around 6 p.m., when a number of streets in the area will be shuttered.

Police warn of potential traffic jams and urge drivers to find alternative routes.

Proponents of the bills to radically remake the judiciary have been increasingly calling for rallies as a show of support, to counter the mass anti-government demonstrations over the past three months.
