Thousands of protesters demonstrated in central Tel Aviv on Monday night and blocked a highway following the Israeli Parliament's approval of a key part of the judicial overhaul that has exposed deep fissures in society.
Scuffles broke out between police and protesters, with at least eight people arrested and protesters lighting fires.

The government’s critics say removing the standard of reasonability opens the door to corruption and improper appointments of unqualified cronies to important positions.
