TEL AVIV, ISRAEL - MARCH 11: Tens of thousands of Israelis attend a massive protest against the government's judicial overhaul plan on March 11, 2023 in Tel Aviv, Israel. The Netanyahu government is pushing ahead with proposed overhaul of the judiciary that would limit the Israeli Supreme Court's ability to review and strike down laws that it deems unconstitutional. Critics say the changes will undermine judicial independence and threaten Israel's democracy. (Photo by Amir Levy/Getty Images)
