Police are bracing for unrest at planned anti-government protests on Saturday night in Tel Aviv and Jerusalem, the Walla news site reports.
The report says police held a meeting to prepare for the protests together with National Security Minister Itamar Ben Gvir.
Protests are expected over the government’s plans to dramatically reform the judicial system, a move critics say would undermine democracy.
