Tens of thousands of Israelis protested outside Prime Minister Benjamin Netanyahu Benjamin (Bibi) NetanyahuMORE’s house Saturday, just three days before the country’s election. In footage captured at the demonstration, protesters called for an end to Netanyahu’s 12-year rule as the country heads into its fourth election in two years. The prime minister maintains his innocence. ADVERTISEMENTIsrael’s fourth snap election of two years was sparked in December when its parliament missed a deadline to pass a budget. The election would have ushered Gantz into the role of prime minister in November 2021.
