At least 15 people were arrested on Monday as Israeli lawmakers voted to pass a key bill of the far-right government's contentious judicial overhaul plan, according to Jerusalem Post on Monday.

The controversial plan has sparked a nationwide protest, with rallies taking place for 29 consecutive weeks.  

On Monday, tens of thousands protested the divisive overhaul with some group gathered outside the Knesset, the Israeli parliament, linking arms to form a wall blocking the entrance.
