Thousands of protesters flooded the streets of Israel on Tuesday as they marked a "Day of Resistance" in response to the Reasonableness Standard Bill passing its first reading in Knesset on Monday night.
From the north of the country to the south, demonstrators clashed with police, blocked roads and marched with the Israeli flag - which has become a symbol of the anti-government protests - held high in the sky.
