Mass Protests In Israel Amid Hostage Release Talks With Hamas, Will Netanyahu Accept Ceasefire Deal?

Hundreds of Israelis rallied have around the country, calling for the government of Benjamin Netanyahu to agree to the terms of a ceasefire deal that Hamas accepted earlier on May 7

About 1,000 protesters gathered near the defence headquarters in Tel Aviv, while in Jerusalem, at least 100 protesters marched toward Netanyahu’s residence with a banner reading, “The blood is on your hands.”

Police were forced to clear a large protest from Tel Aviv’s Ayalon highway twice on May 6 evening, local media reported.

The highway, which has been a focal point of anti-government protests over the last year, was blocked by families of hostages and others supporting a deal to free captives. Images from the scene showed a number of people who appeared to have been detained by police.

Footage from the scene showed hundreds of demonstrators banging drums, brandishing signs and shouting slogans.

“Bibi is abandoning the hostages!” the demonstrators shouted.‎
