Thousands of protesters begin to gather in groups across Tel Aviv, as part of a number of marches through the coastal city that are set to converge at Kaplan Street for a central rally.
A large group of demonstrators in the Old North neighborhood are accompanied by a group of drummers, creating a carnival atmosphere as they wait for marchers to arrive on foot from Ramat Aviv before they head south through the city.
After setting off, the protesters block Ibn Gvirol Street as they march south.
