An estimated 200,000-plus Israelis are currently protesting across the country against the government’s judicial overhaul in the first weekend of rallies since the coalition passed the first piece of legislation from the controversial package.
In Tel Aviv alone, some 174,000 Israelis are rallying at Kaplan Square, according to Channel 13. The Ynet news site has the figure there at roughly 160,000.
Tens of thousands of Israelis are protesting in dozens of other cities across the country.
