Israeli protesters continue to escalate demonstrations against legal and judicial reforms.

TL;DR Summary
Demonstrations against the Israeli government's plan to weaken the judiciary will continue for the 11th consecutive weekend, with rallies planned in Tel Aviv and around 120 other locations. The government's plan would allow the Knesset to override court decisions with a bare majority, preemptively shield laws from judicial oversight, and put the selection of all judges in the hands of coalition politicians. Opposition leaders have rallied behind President Isaac Herzog's proposal for an alternative judicial reform, warning that the country risks descending into civil war.
