Israeli police arrested nine protesters near Prime Minister Netanyahu’s residence, as thousands gathered outside the Knesset, demanding the government act on issues from judicial reform and corruption to securing the release of hostages held by Hamas.
Israeli police detained nine protesters on Monday, October 28, after they blocked a road near Prime Minister Benjamin Netanyahu's residence in Jerusalem.
The protest, aimed at the government and calling for the release of Israeli hostages held by Hamas, saw thousands initially gathering outside the Knesset for the opening of the winter session. Later, some demonstrators marched to Netanyahu's home, where they sat and chanted until police intervened and removed them.
Public frustration with the government stems from a range of issues, including Netanyahu's corruption trials, his administration's attempts at judicial reform, handling of the ongoing war, and what some perceive as a lack of progress in negotiating the release of the 101 hostages still held by Hamas.
