Israeli Prime Minister Benjamin Netanyahu was rushed to the hospital for an emergency heart pacemaker implantation, following widespread protests against his Judicial Overhaul plan. The procedure was successful, and Netanyahu stated that he feels fine and intends to push forward with the judicial overhaul as soon as he is released. The protests against the plan continued with hundreds of thousands of people taking to the streets, and over 100 retired security chiefs came out in favor of military reservists who pledged to stop reporting for duty if the plan is passed. US President Joe Biden has urged Netanyahu to seek a broad consensus.
