Thousands Protest in Israel Demanding Hostage Release
ai generated text
Tens of thousands of Israelis have taken to the streets in protest over the government's handling of the war in Gaza, following the discovery of the bodies of six hostages killed by Hamas. The protests, which have been described as the largest in 11 months of war, have been held in cities including Tel Aviv, Jerusalem, and other major urban centers. The protesters are accusing Prime Minister Benjamin Netanyahu and his government of not doing enough to secure the release of the remaining hostages taken by Hamas during the 7 October attacks.
1 / 2
We, for our part, did not let up. The Israeli government is committed, and I am personally committed, to continue striving for a deal that will return all our abductees and guarantee our security and existence.
The heart of the entire nation is torn.
The war in Gaza is causing horrific human suffering, devastating lives, tearing families apart and rendering huge numbers of people homeless, hungry and traumatised.
I repeat my call, the world's call for an immediate humanitarian ceasefire, the unconditional release of all hostages and an immediate surge in humanitarian aid.
Hamas murdered our hostages in cold blood in order to make us surrender, accept its demands and permit it to survive and rebuild its capabilities.
We must bring back the hostages that are still being held by Hamas.
Netanyahu and the cabinet of death decided not to save them. There still are living hostages there, and it's still possible to do a deal. Netanyahu isn't doing it for political reasons.
The cries of our children being murdered in the tunnels in Gaza is unacceptable.
We are in a state of flux, and we don't stop receiving body bags.
The neglect of the economy must be stopped.
We need to reach a deal, a deal that is more important than anything else.
Starting tomorrow at six in the morning, the entire Israeli economy will go on complete strike.
The Israelis should choose between Netanyahu and the deal.
Netanyahu is responsible for the killing of Israeli prisoners.
Soon, even those who managed to survive this long will no longer be among the living. They must be saved now.
