Protesters gather across Israel on Saturday to protest for the completion of the deal, with demonstrations held in Ness Ziona, Haifa, Hadera and other cities. Protesters also gather at Tel Aviv’s Habima Square.

“We will not lend a hand to abandonment,” the pro-democracy Hofshi B’Artzenu protest group says in a Twitter thread sharing photos from protests it has organized. “Citizens across the country, at intersections, on bridges, and in the streets, came out to fight for the completion of the deal.”
