Hundreds of Protesters outside Israeli Cabinet Meeting in Jerusalem Demand Hostage Deal

Hundreds of Protesters outside Israeli Cabinet Meeting in Jerusalem Demand Hostage Deal

Hundreds of Israelis joined the families of hostages held in Gaza in a protest outside the government’s cabinet meeting in Jerusalem on Sunday. 

Demonstrators waved flags and pictures of the remaining hostages in Gaza, demanding a deal to bring them home immediately.

The Hostages Families Forum, which represents relatives of some of those held in Gaza, said the bodies of six captives recovered from Gaza this week, is the direct result of Prime Minister Netanyahu’s failure to secure a deal to halt the fighting and bring their loved ones home.

Gil Dickmann, a cousin of Carmel Gat whose body was among those returned, urged Israelis to put pressure on the government in a post on social media platform X, to see a deal is done.
