Israel's day of resistance, with mass events all over the country. The morning began with protesters trying to block entries to the airport from where @netanyahu's plane took off for the meeting & weekend in Rome. His staff had to get there by 07:00, 7 hours before the flight.>> pic.twitter.com/YUJJzwfuoU

In order to get to the airport Netanyahu used a police chopper as protesters blocked main highways. He then met in a nearby location with @SecDef. Austin, also, was not able to get elsewhere. The country is under the most severe civil strike ever. (photos from Ra'anana, Yokneam) pic.twitter.com/w4UncuRWw9

It comes after Smotrich's "wipe out Huwara" comment (he tried to backtrack, not successfully) -
