TEL AVIV: Thousands of Israelis protested on Saturday (Dec 28) against Prime Minister Benjamin Netanyahu’s government and its handling of the Gaza conflict.
The protest began with a rally in Democracy Square, where marchers gave speeches and observed a minute of silence, followed by a march to the HaKirya military base.
The protesters demanded an end to the war in Gaza and a ceasefire that would bring home the hostages still held by Hamas.
At least 45,484 Palestinians have been killed and 108,090 wounded in Israel’s military offensive in Gaza since October 7, 2023, the Gaza Health Ministry said on Saturday.
