Following a day of protests in Tel Aviv and other cities, the protests move to Jerusalem, where demonstrators rally outside the Knesset, chanting against the government and waving Israeli flags.
Demonstrators then start to gather in the evening in front of Prime Minister Benjamin Netanyahu’s private residence in central Jerusalem.
Several thousand people are marching, led by a student group.
“What happened this morning in Tel Aviv does not scare us, but only illustrates to us what kind of country we will live in if the coup goes through,” the student protest say in a statement, referring to police riot dispersal means and arrests.
“We will continue to fight against it with all our might. We call on all young people to join,” they say.
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.
