Thousands of Israelis join anti-government rallies in Tel Aviv

Thousands of Israelis on Thursday joined anti-government rallies across the country, protesting government plans to inflict radical changes on Israel’s judicial authority structure. Thursday's rallies were held under the banner of "escalating resistance" with the main rally taking place in central Tel Aviv city. The rallies come as the head of Israeli opposition, Yair Lapid, agreed on the proposal by Israeli President Isaac Herzog to solve the ongoing crisis, while the Israeli government rejected it.
