Around 500,000 people protested in Israel after 6 hostages were killed in Gaza. Demonstrators in cities like Jerusalem and Tel Aviv demanded Prime Minister Benjamin Netanyahu secure a ceasefire and bring home the remaining 101 hostages. The bodies of the six hostages were recovered from a tunnel in Gaza. Netanyahu vowed to hold those responsible accountable, while anger grew over the government's handling of the crisis. Protests intensified, with calls for a general strike to push for a deal that would end the conflict and free the remaining captives.
