Tens of thousands of Israelis have taken to the streets to call for a new ceasefire in Gaza and to protest against what they say is an attack on the country’s democracy by the rightwing governing coalition of Benjamin Netanyahu.

Key highways have been blocked and police have made at least 12 arrests amid heated scenes in Jerusalem and Tel Aviv. More protests were expected in the coming days as the campaign “gathers momentum and energy”, campaigners said.

Nobody moves to Israel that isnt a religious extremist, its like the Vatican if the Vatican had a massive military. The hostage return protests always feel so fake, because they only want the hostages to be returned so that the IDF can finally fully erase Gaza off the map.
