Haaretz Podcast - A podcast by Haaretz

Host Simon Spungin is joined by Haaretz’s Jerusalem correspondent, Nir Hasson, and Judy Maltz, to discuss the widespread, angry protests against Prime Minister Benjamin Netanyahu. In a rare show of youth activism, the protests are being spearheaded by Israeli youngsters, who are angry at the prime minister’s handling of the coronavirus pandemic and his refusal to step aside while facing three serious corruption charges. Who is leading these protests, what do they hope to achieve and how have Bibi  and his supports responded to a mass show of dissatisfaction with his leadership?
