Protesters in Israel have blocked roads and attempted to stop the prime minister flying out the country amid nationwide demonstrations against controversial judicial reforms.
Critics have said the reforms will undermine democracy; meanwhile the government said planned changes are better for the electorate.
Thousands of protesters, many waving Israeli flags and carrying signs with slogans against the reforms, massed on main roads in Tel Aviv, causing major disruption to traffic.
Vehicles obstructed access roads to Ben Gurion airport, from where Benjamin Netanyahu is due to fly to Rome.
The weeks-old protests are some of the biggest Israel has ever seen.
