Hundreds of protesters rallied Friday outside Downing Street in central London to heckle the arrival of Israeli Prime Minister Benjamin Netanyahu for a meeting with his British counterpart Rishi Sunak. ManilaBulletin

Netanyahu has faced weeks of escalating protests in Israel over his government's judicial reform programme, which would increase politicians' power over the courts and critics argue is a threat to democracy.

The pair will discuss "the need to formulate a united international front against Iran in order to stop its nuclear program", it added.
