Israeli right proposes series of undemocratic laws

The Yedioth Ahronoth website reported on Sunday morning that the Israeli right-wing is introducing a series of laws during the Knesset‘s winter session primarily aiming to limit the power and influence of the Israeli Supreme Court, including preventing it from interfering in legislation after its recent decision regarding the illegality of a number of laws proposed by the right-wing, the most controversial being the law limiting the arrest and detainment of illegal African immigrants in Israel.
