Anti-government protests demand release of Gaza hostages ahead of Israel’s Memorial Day Anchorage

Protesters took to the streets of several cities across Israel on Saturday, demanding the release of all hostages held in Gaza ahead of Israel’s Memorial Day.
They demanded the resignation of Israeli Prime Minister Benjamin Netanyahu and for early elections to be held.
Families of hostages held in Gaza also took part in anti-government protests, including in Tel Aviv, Caesarea, Rehovot, and Haifa.

Many waved Israeli flags and held up signs with images of the Israeli hostages, calling on the government to bring them home alive.
