Demonstrations sweep Israel and demand Netanyahu's removal

Hundreds of Israelis demonstrated in central Tel Aviv, in Jerusalem, Haifa, Beersheba and Rehovot, to demand the overthrow of Prime Minister Benjamin Netanyahu's government and the holding of parliamentary elections, as the war on the Gaza Strip entered its 120th day.

During these protests, the demonstrators raised slogans holding Netanyahu responsible for the events of October 7, and the events that followed, leading to the mismanagement of the prisoner exchange deal file, in addition to accusing him of corruption.

The protesters demanded that the government accelerate the return of 136 Israeli prisoners held by the Palestinian resistance in Gaza.

Hundreds of Israelis participated in the demonstration against the government at the Horev Junction in Haifa, demanding early elections. Participants carried banners reading: “Elections are now and save the prisoners.”

In the city of Rehovot, dozens demonstrated and chanted against Netanyahu.

Israelis demonstrate almost daily to demand early elections and the release of prisoners in Gaza.

Since October 7, the Israeli army has been waging a devastating war on Gaza that, as of Saturday, left 27,238 martyrs and 66,452 injured, most of them children and women, and caused massive destruction and an unprecedented humanitarian disaster, according to the United Nations.
