The rallies were held on Saturday, with the coastal city of Tel Aviv drawing the biggest crowd as was the case in previous weeks.

“I came to protest here for the 32nd week in a row. We come here each week … [in protest] against the coup that the Israeli” cabinet “is trying to do,” one of the protesters was quoted by Reuters as saying in Tel Aviv rally.

“I am here for the 32nd week in a row, this is my 32nd Saturday night. I am here. And I am here because I believe that [what Israeli Prime Minister Benjamin] Netanyahu … [is] doing … is dangerous,” another protester stated.

“Israel is being torn apart and we feel we are on the brink of a civil war,” Peleg, who is a doctor, stressed, adding that Netanyahu’s cabinet “needs to be overthrown.”

Hundreds of protesters marched toward the residence of the Knesset speaker following the protests at the nearby Kaplan junction in Tel Aviv, where they faced the regime’s forces who tried to disperse them.

Similar rallies were also held in other locations across the occupied territories, including in the cities of Haifa, Netanya, and Herzliya, in the occupied city of al-Quds, and in the southern town of Ashdod.

According to Israeli media, over 1,500 protesters gathered outside the residence of the regime’s president in al-Quds.

The hard-right cabinet of Netanyahu, which includes far-right and ultra-Orthodox parties, triggered the demonstrations in January by announcing the so-called judicial overhaul plan, which it then forwarded to the Knesset in the form of several bills.

The changes seek to enfeeble the Supreme Court in the face of the political elite by rendering the former incapable of striking down the decisions that are made by the latter. Other proposed changes include giving the Israeli cabinet a greater say in the appointment of judges to the court.

Ever since its onset, the protest movement has snowballed into the biggest to have ever been faced by the occupying entity throughout its history.

Public outrage has grown since last month, when the Knesset passed the first bill of the judicial overhaul plan after opposition lawmakers left the session. The bill scrapped the “reasonableness” law, through which the Supreme Court can overturn decisions made by Israeli cabinet such as ministerial appointments.

Opponents have described the overhaul drive as an attempt by Netanyahu, who stands accused in several corruption cases, to overturn future verdicts against him.

The protests have also seeped into the military, where an increasing number of army reservists have been threatening to stop reporting for duty in a show of their opposition to the overhaul scheme.
