Due to the tension in the south and the incessant shooting in recent hours, and due to genuine concern for the safety of the demonstrators, the organizers of the protest against the legal revolution announced the postponement of the demonstration planned for tomorrow in Kaplan to next week. After 18 consecutive weeks of demonstrating across the country and in Kaplan, demonstrators against the legal revolution were asked not to arrive tomorrow.

"In recent days, the organizers of the demonstrations have been in close contact with the Israel Police and security forces, and the consideration before our eyes is maintaining the safety of the demonstrators," the organizers said in an official statement.

"Our first concern is always the safety of our people who defend democracy. Therefore, out of responsibility for the welfare of our people, we decided to postpone the demonstration by a week. If we see that the government is promoting changes related to the regime coup are promoted, we will take to the streets of Israel with full force. The Israeli government must not make a mistake in our intention – we are on the watch of democracy and will ensure that Israel remains democratic," they added.

In this context, a senior security source told Walla!: "Data on the security assessment was provided to the organizers of the demonstrations in Kaplan. It was made clear to them that unlike Aviv Geffen's performance, it would be much more complex to protect the participants of the demonstrations because of their large dispersal. In the end, we were able to prove that decisions are made jointly, including with the police."

The source said that before Geffen's show, calculations, intelligence assessments, data analysis were made, and tactical decisions were made to help deal with the complexity. The source also said that one of the decisions was that the Home Front Command would not announce a warning of rockets if they were launched, and if they were, a note would be sent to Aviv Geffen quickly, and he, for his part, was supposed to ask the microphone to sit on the grass and conduct himself accordingly in order to prevent panic.
