Israeli anti-government activists announce week of protests to demand early election

Israeli anti-government activists have started a week of disruption aimed at pressuring the government to step down, the Times of Israel is reporting.

On Sunday, protestors blocked several highways, calling for elections before 7 October anniversary, according to one of the organisers.

The activists plan to gather outside Israel’s Knesset tomorrow evening, according to the Times of Israel.

“Only elections can start the healing process,”  protest leader Moshe Radman told The Times of Israel.

“Netanyahu, what are you afraid of? Only a dictator is afraid of his people.”
