Israel: Police and anti-judicial reform protesters clash as bill advances - BBC News

Israeli police have clashed with protesters amid huge demonstrations against the government's controversial judicial reform plans.
Police used water cannon to clear a major highway, and 71 people have been arrested across the country.
The bill argues that the courts exercise too much political interference, overriding the will of the electorate. Critics of the reforms say the government's plans are too extensive and are a grave threat to the country's democratic system.
Significantly, hundreds of reservists - the backbone of Israel's military - have threatened to stop turning up for duty in protest at the reforms.
