Israel’s Supreme Court began hearing the first in a series of appeals linked to a judicial overhaul undertaken by Prime Minister Benjamin Netanyahu and his hard-right coalition, which has set off an unprecedented domestic crisis. | Reuters

“It’s not a secret that our prime minister decided to wage a war on the Supreme Court and on the nature of Israel as a democracy, and we are taking the streets in order to stop it,” said former foreign minister Tzipi Livni.

“We want a true and real democracy,” said lawyer Iska Bina, who supports the overhaul. “Our vote doesn’t matter anymore, because 15 judges decide for us.”
