Protests in Israel against judicial reform intensify

Thousands of Israelis returned to the streets on Thursday to protest the government’s plans to radically change Israel’s judicial authority structure which would limit the power of the Supreme Court of Justice. The rallies were held under the banner of "escalating resistance".
