Protests as Netanyahu accused of undermining Israel’s democracy


Tel Aviv (AFP) – Israeli protesters return to the streets to rally against proposed judicial reforms, after Prime Minister Benjamin Netanyahu rejected a compromise plan touted by the country’s president Isaac Herzog. Since Netanyahu’s hard-right government announced the reforms in January, the month after taking office, massive demonstrations have regularly taken place across Israel, with protesters arguing that the reforms threaten the country’s democracy.
