Massive protests in Tel Aviv demand a ceasefire in Gaza and the return of hostages, contrasting sharply with Prime Minister Netanyahu's celebratory stance in Jerusalem. Netanyahu's government appears indifferent to the widespread public support for a deal to end the 22-month war and bring home the 50 remaining hostages. Despite the government's accusations that the protests aid Hamas, demonstrations continue, fueled by solidarity with the hostage families and a desire to show the world that the Israeli people do not support the government's actions. Recent protests have drawn hundreds of thousands, putting pressure on Netanyahu and highlighting a deep division within Israel.
