Protest organizers aim to maintain momentum and increase pressure on Prime Minister Netanyahu and his government until the proposed changes are scrapped.
Thousands of demonstrators take to the streets of Tel Aviv for the 13th consecutive week, some blocking one of the major highways in the coastal city, to protest against Benjamin Netanyahu's proposal to overhaul the justice system, even after the prime minister paused the process for a month. Critics say the proposed reforms, which would limit the power of the supreme court, threaten Israel's democracy.
Israeli police used water cannon to disperse protesters during a demonstration against the judicial overhaul which triggered the country's most severe domestic crisis in years. Israel's Prime Minister Benjamin Netanyahu paused the overhaul on Monday night.
