Anti-overhaul protesters block the central Rupin-Ben Zvi intersection in Jerusalem, not far from the Knesset, before starting to march down Ben Zvi Road toward Prime Minister Benjamin Netanyahu’s residence on Gaza Street.

More than 1,000 people are attending the rally and march, with many beating drums, donning Israel flags and shouting pro-democracy slogans, as mounted police forces stand nearby.
