President of the Israeli Supreme Court Esther Hayut and all fifteen judges assemble to hear petitions against the 'reasonableness clause' at the court premises in Jerusalem, on September 12, 2023. The petitions call to strike down the clause passed by Israel's hardline government through parliament in July, a major element of a controversial judicial overhaul that has triggered mass protests and divided the nation. The amendment limits the powers of the top court to review and sometimes overturn government decisions, which opponents say paves the way to authoritarianism.
