Mass protests broke out in Israel as families of hostages blocked major roads, demanding a deal to bring their loved ones home. The unrest came a day after an Israeli strike on Nasser Hospital in Gaza killed at least 20 people, including five journalists and four health workers. Footage showed rescuers hit by a second strike. Prime Minister Benjamin Netanyahu called it a “tragic mishap” and promised an investigation. Nearly 200 journalists have died in the Gaza war, the deadliest conflict for media workers. President Trump said he wants the war “settled soon” and hinted at a ceasefire deal. (PC: BBC)
