Israel Supreme Court showdown over controversial judicial reform – BBC News


After months of protests against the hardline Israeli government’s highly controversial judicial overhaul, an historic showdown is taking place.

Thousands of Israelis gathered for a rally outside the court in Jerusalem on Monday night in support of the judges.

Critics argue the move will weaken judicial independence and democracy.
