In Israel, the street demonstrations do not subside. According to media reports, local police used water cannons against protesters.
It was noted that this was done to repel citizens who broke into Prime Minister Benjamin Netanyahu’s residence. Violent clashes ensued between them and the police. It is reported by RT with reference to a local publication.
Recall, the massive dissatisfaction of Israelis has been caused by the judicial reform in the country. Since March 12, information has been received on the number of demonstrators against the adoption of this reform by the authorities. Then about 250,000 people came out to protest.
By the evening of March 25, there was evidence that around 630,000 people had already taken part in protests against judicial reform. The government, led by Prime Minister Netanyahu, has proposed the following changes to the law: limiting the influence of the Supreme Court on the adoption of basic laws, placing the appointment of judges under government control and allowing parliamentarians to challenge court decisions.
Amid protests over changes to Israel’s justice system, the pilots refused to fly Netanyahu to London. This was said by the UK edition. For this reason, the Prime Minister of the country was forced to postpone his official visit to the United Kingdom.
