As the Israeli Parliament approves on first reading a bill which would allow lawmakers to overturn Supreme Court rulings with a simple majority vote, protestors gathered at Ben Gurion airport to condemn the judicial reform.
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.
