Over the weekend, thousands of protesters took to the streets in Tel Aviv and other major cities in Israel, calling for the resignation of Prime Minister Benjamin Netanyahu and pushing for early elections. The demonstrations were fueled by growing frustration over Netanyahu's handling of the ongoing conflict and his failure to secure the release of hostages held in Gaza.
During an anti-government rally in Tel Aviv, a protester was arrested for assaulting a police officer, highlighting the tensions and emotions running high among the demonstrators. Authorities also issued warnings against lighting bonfires as the crowds swelled in size.
