Hundreds of anti-government protesters flank police barricades in Caesarea, prompting police to scramble and reposition barriers meant to block them from reaching the private residence of Prime Minister Benjamin Netanyahu.
The marchers reached the barricades from the east instead of the west, as they had done in previous protest rallies in Caesarea in recent weeks, says a spokesperson from Moked Caesarea, the name of the group coordinating protests in the town of some 6,000 residents near Netanya.
Chanting slogans such as “you are guilty” and “resign,” the protesters stop short of approaching the barricades themselves, pausing behind some fencing that police had set up around the barricade perimeter.
Moked Caesarea on Facebook says they are within roughly 200 yards of the residence, 600 yards closer than in previous weeks.
Help us report truthfully on social media
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.
If you believe in the importance of factual social media journalism, please consider joining our reader support group, The Times of Israel Community. Your financial support is essential to sustain responsible multimedia reporting.
