Tens of thousands of protesters are still blocking the Ayalon Highway in Tel Aviv, more than three hours since Prime Minister Benjamin Netanyahu fired Defense Minister Yoav Gallant.
The protesters have lit bonfires on the highway and are planning to stay there overnight.
Police have yet to attempt to disperse them.
