More than 200,000 Israelis demonstrated, on Saturday evening, against the policies of Israeli Prime Minister Benjamin Netanyahu 's government, despite the latter's announcement of freezing progress on the "judicial reform" plan.

The demonstrations were concentrated in the city of Tel Aviv and its main streets, especially Ayalon and Kaplan streets.

Thousands also demonstrated in Haifa, Herzliya and other Israeli cities.

The Israeli police used force to attack the demonstrators after they closed the main streets in Tel Aviv.

Three Israelis were arrested in possession of weapons and pepper spray.
