    Israel: Tension peaks with massive anti-government rally in Tel Aviv

    Tension arose in Tel Aviv as a massive anti-government rally took over the streets of the city on Thursday.

    According to local media, thousands of citizens gathered at the demonstration. Protesters blocked some of the most important streets in the city, as well as connexions to the airport, where President Benjamin Netanyahu was set to take a flight.

    For the ninth week in a row, protesters claimed against the last judiciary reform introduced by Netanyahu's government. The new system would reportedly limit the Tribunals' powers and grant further authority to the parliament.

    Coinciding with the rally, at least three people were injured in a shooting attack in the city centre. Israeli security forces suspect the shooting could have been a terrorist attack.
