TL;DR Summary

Women in Israel are protesting against the government's plan to overhaul the judiciary by dressing up as characters from "The Handmaid's Tale." They fear that the proposed changes will harm women's rights and push the country towards autocracy. The government's plan has sparked widespread opposition and tens of thousands of people have taken to the streets in protest each week. The women in red robes have become a mainstay at protests around the country, with their numbers growing. The costume has been used in protests elsewhere to symbolize the threat to women under the patriarchy.
