An outpouring of anger and grief led to mass demonstrations in Tel Aviv and beyond on Sunday, following the discovery of the bodies of six hostages killed by Hamas in Gaza. Protesters, while blaming Hamas for the deaths, also criticized Israeli Prime Minister Benjamin Netanyahu for his handling of the crisis, accusing him of failing to secure a hostage-ceasefire deal.
In Tel Aviv, the largest demonstration since the conflict began took place, with crowds chanting and honoring the names of the deceased hostages. Protesters expressed determination to continue fighting until all hostages are returned. Some demonstrators erected a mock cemetery symbolizing blame on Netanyahu for the tragedy.
