These people attended planned demonstrations in multiple cities across Israel, according to Hostage Families Forum, which organised protests with Israel's largest labour union to join in the protests today, Monday, September 2.


According to reports, the protests are the largest demonstration since the start of the war 11 months ago.

It's not only in Gaza where fatalities were found. This day three police officials were killed in West Bank. It made the people and the other police officers cried in sorrow and despair.

It would be great if their leaders would listen to them and ceasefire. The killing is too much and no one is safe.

I read the news yesterday and I don't think the war will stop as killing of the hostages might have ignited anger of the president of Israel

PM Netanyahu will never cease the war. it will escalate more. The people must stay safe They might be hit with a drone or rocket from the Hezbollah group, or from the West bank.

The president should listen to the protesters and do the needful for them. There's no need fighting all the time

The Prime Minister cannot stay silent. How could Israel retreat when there is no agreement yet. The terrorists may attack Israel anytime. There should be peace agreement with a third party representative.
