Mass demonstrations erupt in Tel Aviv as protesters demand the release of hostages from Gaza and call for an end to renewed military action.

Thousands of protesters have flooded the streets of Tel Aviv in ongoing demonstrations against Israeli Prime Minister Benjamin Netanyahu and the recent resumption of military operations in Gaza.

The demonstrators are demanding the Israeli government secure the immediate release of hostages still held by Hamas. They have also expressed anger at moves on Israeli officials deemed hostile to Netanyahu and his cabinet.

Israel restarted its military campaign against Hamas in Gaza on March 18, ending two months of relative calm under a ceasefire agreement that facilitated the return of 33 Israeli hostages, both alive and deceased. Currently, 59 hostages remain in Gaza, including 24 believed to be alive.

Since the resumption of hostilities, protests in Tel Aviv and Jerusalem have intensified, merging demands for a ceasefire, the return of remaining hostages, an end to the conflict, and the protection of democratic institutions.
