Israel: Clashes erupt during protests against judicial reforms, protesters clash with police

More than 200-thousand people took to the streets across Israel on Saturday to protest against the laws being pushed by Prime Minister Benjamin Netanyahu. In Tel Aviv alone, where weekend demonstrations have become customary, more than 160-thousand protesters carrying national flags and banners, marched and chanted slogans denouncing the reforms. The demonstration was largely peaceful, but as it approached the end, some protesters started to break police barricades. They blocked the city's main highway and scuffled with police. police fired tear gas on the protesters and detained four of them. Demonstrations were witnessed in the city of Jerusalem as well. Hundreds of protesters gathered outside the residence of president Issac Herzog to denounce the reforms. Netanyahu's government says the reforms are important to curb over-reaching powers of courts. But protesters claim they have put the democracy in the country at stake. The legislation limits the supreme court's powers to rule against the legislature and the executive while giving lawmakers decisive powers in appointing judges. #israel #judicialreforms #worldnews About Channel: WION The World is One News, examines global issues with in-depth analysis.
