The latest wave of protests against Prime Minister Benjamin Netanyahu’s plans to tighten controls on the Supreme Court come as Israel faces a sharp rise in tensions on several fronts
Tens of thousands of Israelis joined protests on Saturday against Prime Minister Benjamin Netanyahu’s plans to tighten controls on the Supreme Court, despite heightened security worries after two deadly attacks a day earlier.
Israelis were also on edge after a car-ramming in Tel Aviv on Friday that killed an Italian man and wounded five other tourists, hours after a gun attack killed two Israeli sisters and wounded their mother near a settlement in the occupied West Bank. The demonstration began with a prayer for the victims of the attacks a day earlier but protesters said they would not be put off by security worries.
Hundreds of thousands of demonstrators, including army reservists, business leaders, members of Israel’s tech industry and leading academics have taken part, facing off against supporters of Netanyahu’s religious-nationalist coalition.
