Thousands of anti-government protesters are marching toward Prime Minister Benjamin Netanyahu’s residence in Jerusalem.

The marchers, who set out from Sacher Park, are heading both directions along Ben Zvi Boulevard, a major road in the city that runs alongside the park.

The procession to Netanyahu’s home is one of many demonstrations staged as part of a full day of anti-government protests across the country.

Members of the HaShomer HaTzair youth group are leading the march, chanting: “We won’t agree to the abandonment of the hostages!”

Police are flanking the protest and walking in front of the march. Mounted officers and a water cannon are stationed further down the road.
