Tens of thousands of Israelis are attending protests against the government in various locations throughout the country.
A few dozen stand near the gated luxury mansion on Jerusalem’s Caspi Street, owned by American billionaire Simon Falic, a friend of Prime Minister Benjamin Netanyahu, where the prime minister is said to be staying as of this weekend, and which reportedly has a nuclear shelter.
“You are the head [of government], you’re responsible,” call the protestors, who are told by Border Police officers to stand behind the fencing set up outside the mansion.
They also gather in Caesarea and in Haifa, where protestors march with drums and banners and chant: “The government of Israel is against the nation of Israel” and “A government without skills, you should quit now.”
