Organizers claim largest-ever rally in Tel Aviv as calls for hostage deal intensify
Groups behind demonstrations estimate 500,000 at main protest, 250,000 at other rallies around country; police scuffle with activists blocking roads, arrest five
A crowd said to number in the hundreds of thousands took to the streets in Tel Aviv to rally for the release of hostages in Gaza Saturday night, amid ballooning protests demanding the government strike a ceasefire deal with the Hamas terror group to secure the release of captives abducted exactly 11 months earlier.
With masses seething over the recent execution of six hostages who might have been freed in an exchange, and with the one-year anniversary of the October 7 massacre swiftly approaching, masses gathered in cities around the country to demonstrate against the government and press their case for a hostage deal.
Protest organizers estimated that 500,000 people attended the flagship rally in Tel Aviv, organized by the Hostage Families Forum — an estimate they claimed was confirmed by police. They said another 250,000 demonstrated in other areas around the country.
If true, the Tel Aviv rally would mark the largest-ever demonstration in Israel’s history.
Police announced that they detained five protesters at the Tel Aviv rally, but did not comment on crowd size.
Simultaneous protests were held in cities and at major intersections around the country, including Jerusalem, Haifa, Rishon Lezion, Beersheba, Netanya and elsewhere, with organizers claiming tens of thousands in some places.
