Protests and Politics: Netanyahu's Turbulent Trips Abroad.

Hundreds of protesters gathered in London to demonstrate against Israeli Prime Minister Benjamin Netanyahu's plans to overhaul the country's judiciary. The protests come as Netanyahu met with British Prime Minister Rishi Sunak to discuss issues including the war in Ukraine and Iran's nuclear programme. Sunak raised concerns about the proposed judicial reforms, which limit the Supreme Court's powers, and stressed the importance of upholding democratic values. Netanyahu's visit to the UK coincided with some of the largest protests in Israel's history, with thousands taking to the streets to oppose his government's policies towards Palestinians and recent legislation making it harder to remove him from office.
