a weekly ritual since prime minister benjamin netanyahu returned to power in january. critics fear his plans to reform, did you just hurry wood hall a well, the high courts, independence and good. it's ability to service your check on the israel, the government allowing a simple majority in parliament to reject its decisions. we are protesting because if not it's, it's like compliance and we will never agree to have democracy. abolish in this country in a country that's long, prided itself and being the only democracy in the middle east. many is really see the legislation as an assault on the very soul of the country. i mean to demonstrate them sound my voice against the dictatorship that there snobbish year in the name of the so called law judge called reform. it's not the judge reform. it's a revolution making israel go to full dictatorship, and i want to say a democracy for my kids, for my grandson will be here because it is

a democracy country. and my stay is one. despite the demonstrations prime incentives in yahoo, in his allies have pledged to press ahead, its opposition, keeps mounting. a few moments ago i talked to did only use rebecca return, who is in jerusalem. she brought us the latest updates as protest against digital reforms there reached their 10th week. that's right, monica. these protests have been going on now for 10 consecutive weeks since the government announced this controversial plan to overhaul the judiciary. in early january. they've been gaining pace, they did start out as the weekly protests on the weekend, or even largely in tel aviv than solely spreading out throughout the country. but of course, saturday night isn't the most disruptive. so we've seen them spilling over into week days now to particularly when those bills were 1st being discussed by the, by the connected by the committee. and then in the case that we saw a thousands or tens of thousands of protesters here on monday in jerusalem. we've

been seeing now for the last couple of weeks. what were they calling? days of resistance, days of destruction are the lot on being on thursday. there's another couple planned for during this week as well as people trying to, to be more disruptive to the economy, to people's daily lives, to really make their voices heard. now in the beginning of the government or the coalition, we're able to kind of dismiss these protests to sort of left as crews left as plot to try and overthrow the government or try and, you know, make their voices heard that they, they weren't happy with the election result, but that's becoming much harder for a bebe netanyahu for benjamin netanyahu, the prime minister and his coalition. now we're seeing reservists, military reservist join their protests, other top military brass, both a former and current. and we're seeing economists and people from the tech industry as well. and even right wing protests there, there's been at least 3 weeks of right wing protests here in jerusalem. or there are people that voted probably for some of these coalition parties. most certainly probably a lot of voters from the la crude party that benjamin netanyahu party. they are

also very unhappy with the reform. so the government, the coalition becoming increasingly isolated in its decision to push forward with these reforms with opinion poll showing that a majority of people in the country are actually against these reforms being pushed through so quickly. but it certainly seems to be the case that the, the government is pushing that. what many se controversial bill through is trying to do. so this bill seems to be very important to the current coalition ways that all their argument you, you reported on a little bit before in the report. but the argument from the supporters is really that the supreme court has too much power, that you know more power of the will of the people, the majority, the, the electorate should be heard. this is a country because it doesn't have a constitution, it only has one house of the parliament. there is no separation of the directory. i'm sorry, of the legislative and executive power. so this is the supreme court is really one

of the only checks on the government and the government. now trying to roll back some of those checks. and they're saying that, you know, that that's important to post opposition to opposes of the, of the bill changes rather as saying that it would, it would mean that minority rights are rejected. and that, you know, yeah, basically that, that a lot of support. there's a lot of personal within the government, the ultra orthodox factions of the government want to to push their changes ahead and that, that requires a weakening of the supreme court as well as the national religious. and of course, benjamin netanyahu, himself is existential for him. he's also facing trial so it could personally benefit him to have changes to the supreme court as well. so definitely something that is really is leaving the country apart, monica right. all right, her dw rebecca ritter's reporting introduce alom. rebecca, thank you. let's take a look now at some of the other news making headlines around the world. israel's military says its forces shot and killed 3 militant palestinian gunmen who open
