Tens of thousands of Israelis have been protesting against the government's Proposed Judicial Reform, which is aimed at curbing the powers of the judiciary. Prime Minister Benjamin Netanyahu and his coalition believe that the judiciary interferes too much and want more power for elected officials. The protests have been ongoing for 26 weeks and have caused major disruptions, including blocking roads and stopping trains. Netanyahu, who is currently on trial for corruption, was even airlifted to the airport for an overseas trip to avoid the protests.
