Israel became a sovereign state on May 14, 1948 – with extensive support from the Soviet Union. However, the celebration date changes on a yearly basis - in 2023, the Independence of Israel is celebrated on April 25-26.
Sputnik brings you a broadcast from Tel-Aviv, where Israelis rally against Prime Minister Benjamin Netanyahu and the judicial reform planned by the government. The bill gives the Knesset – Israeli parliament – power over the Supreme Court. Israel has been shaken by protests for 16 consecutive weeks.
Organizers of protests dub the date "the biggest independence event in Israel's history."
