Protesters against the coalition’s judicial overhaul legislation are gathering nationwide for the 35th week in a row.
Demonstrators have begun marching in Haifa and Nahalal in northern Israel, and Ramat HaSharon in the center.
Activists vowed the rallies would go ahead after police tackled violent clashes in Tel Aviv between Eritrean asylum seekers supporting and opposing the government in Asmara.
