People rally near Prime Minister Benjamin Netanyahu’s Azza Street residence in Jerusalem for the fourth consecutive day of protests against the dismissal of Shin Bet chief Ronen Bar and the government’s renewed efforts to revive its highly controversial judicial overhaul legislation.
The demonstration is also bolstered by protesters opposed to the renewed fighting in the Gaza Strip and the collapse of the ceasefire-hostage deal, which has left the fate of the remaining 59 captives in Gaza uncertain.
Undeterred by the rainy weather, a group marching toward Azza Street holds a banner declaring: “History is made by the people.”
“Left, right, left, right, left!” the group chants. “Everyone together, until [Netanyahu] falls!”
Others march past the President’s Residence on their way to Azza Street, waving Israeli flags alongside the yellow flags that have come to represent the plight of the hostages.
