WION Speed News: Row over Israeli government's judicial reforms

<p>Israel's Tel Aviv saw mass protests on Wednesday (March 1) as demonstrators marked the "day of disruptions" against a recent decision by the Benjamin Netanyahu government over changes related to the judiciary. As thousands took to streets, roads and trains were blocked by demonstrators. Israeli police launched a forceful crackdown, lobbed stun grenades, and fired water cannons to quell the stir. Dozens were reportedly detained while several people, injured during the violence that ensued, were hospitalised.&nbsp; Amid aggressive police tactics, according to a report by the Washington Post, three - among those who were injured - underwent surgery, including one person who lost his ear after being shot at with a stun grenade. Visuals from the city shared online captured scuffles and cops were seen dragging protesters.&nbsp;</p>

<p>Responding to the agitation, which is expected to further intensify, Israel Prime Minister Benjamin Netanyahu's office released a statement. "Citizens of Israel, the right to demonstrate is a fundamental democratic value; however, freedom to demonstrate is not freedom to bring the country to a halt," he was quoted as saying, underlining that "the sharp and clear red line is that violence and anarchy are absolutely forbidden". &nbsp;Calling for calm, Netanyahu underlined: "I know among you are many citizens who love the country and who fervently support the judicial reform.I also know that there are many other citizens who also love the country, who oppose the reform with the same fervour."&nbsp;</p>
