TEL AVIV: Thousands of Israelis protested in Tel Aviv Saturday for a 13th straight week against a controversial judicial overhaul now frozen by the government while talks are held with party representatives.

Carrying Israeli flags, people marched through the center of Israel's commercial hub, chanting 'democracy' and carrying placards condemning the hard-right government of Prime Minister Benjamin Netanyahu.
