Thousands of Israeli protesters blocked several highways and congregated outside of the Tel Aviv stock exchange Tuesday to protest Prime Minister Benjamin Netanyahu’s plan to overhaul the judicial system, according to The Associated Press.

The protests took place on a planned “Day of Disruption” after Netanyahu moved ahead with legislation, scheduled for a vote by the Israeli parliament next week, that would create more limits to judicial oversight on certain government decisions, according to the AP. The protests Tuesday are planned to go on throughout the day, particularly around transit areas during rush hour.
