Tens of thousands of Israelis took to the streets of Tel Aviv on Saturday night to protest against corruption in Prime Minister Benjamin Netanyahu’s government.
The “March of Shame” protest came as Netanyahu headed to Europe for meetings in France on Sunday and at the European Union headquarters in Brussels on Monday.
Demonstrators on Tel Aviv’s Rotschild Boulevard held signs reading, “Out with the corrupt!” and “Not leftist, not rightist, but honest!” Others read, “Being a pig isn’t kosher” and “Bibi go home.”
Hundreds of protesters against corruption gathered in Haifa as well, with signs reading “Democracy isn’t a suggestion” and “Shame on you.”
At last’s rally, some 30,000 protesters marched along Rothschild Boulevard to Habima Square, many of them calling for Netanyahu to be locked up.
