A protester in Tel Aviv was fatally injured when police fired a grenade. Reshet Bet radio also reported that police fired tear gas to disperse the protesters.
But Prime Minister Netanyahu came to the scene by supporting the police in the incident. He said that violence once morest the police and road blocking protests will not be accepted and the right to protest is not the right to anarchy.
Israeli Security Minister Itamar Ben Gvir said that some of the protesters threw stones at the police and then the police had to intervene to control the chaos of the protesters.
Netanyahu sought to implement new policies to introduce political control over judicial appointments and limit the Supreme Court’s power to overturn government decisions and Knesset (Israeli parliament) laws.
Parliament gave initial approval to these policies despite opposition boycotts. After this, the people of Israel protested.
But US Ambassador Tom Nids said that amid the flare-up of protests, people should be brought together and try to find consensus. He had come to attend a conference at Tel Aviv University.
Netanyahu is of the opinion that this law will eliminate the imbalance between different sections of the government and will bring rise in the business sector.
But legal experts said that Israel will be isolated by this law. Israeli President Isaac Herzog also said that the country is on the verge of constitutional and social collapse and that consensus should be sought.
