Crime Minister, one of the three main groups organizing protests against Prime Minister Benjamin Netanyahu, calls for protests tonight in Jerusalem and Tel Aviv, as well as on bridges across the country.
The Jerusalem protest will begin at 7:30 p.m. at the Prime Minister’s official residence on Balfour Street, while Tel Aviv protests will take place at Public Security Minister Amir Ohana’s apartment in the Bitzaron neighborhood at 6:30 p.m.
Last Saturday night saw the largest anti-Netanyahu demonstrations yet, with tens of thousands protesting across the country. Around 15,000 gathered in Jerusalem alone in front of the Prime Minister’s Residence, according to police estimates.
Most Thursday night protests have been less well-attended so far than those on Saturday night, but hundreds of demonstrators have arrived at Balfour Street for the past two weeks to call for Netanyahu to resign.

As a multimedia journalist, my job is to take the quality, fact-based journalism produced by The Times of Israel newsroom and make it accessible across every platform — from Instagram posts to podcasts to short-form videos.
This is how many, especially young people, consume news these days. But misinformation is rampant on social media. Our team at ToI produces accurate, responsible short-form reporting on Israel and the Jewish world.
