Protesters tried to march towards Benjamin Netanyahus home after gathering outside the Knesset. They called for immediate elections and the release of the remaining hostages being held captive in Gaza.
The demonstrations came after the prime minister dissolved the three-person war cabinet that was tasked with handling the war against Hamas. Benny Gantz, a popular opposition lawmaker and former military chief, quit Netanyahus governing coalition in frustration how the war was being handled. Protesters have announced a week of mass demonstrations to call block highways and create disruption.
