Hundreds of activists gathered outside Israeli Prime Minister Benjamin Netanyahu’s office in Jerusalem this week, waving signs reading ‘Stop the War’ and ‘Bring Them Home Now’ as tensions over the Gaza conflict reached a boiling point. The protest coincided with a high-stakes security cabinet meeting to discuss a potential full-scale military takeover of Gaza.
Netanyahu, in a pre-meeting interview, vowed to “remove Hamas” and proposed transferring Gaza’s administration to “civilian leadership supported by Arab allies” post-conflict. Meanwhile, Palestinian authorities report over 61,100 lives lost since fighting erupted in October 2023, with entire neighborhoods reduced to rubble. 💔
The demonstrations highlight growing public frustration over the war’s human toll and the unresolved hostage crisis. As smoke still rises over Gaza, the world watches to see if diplomacy or escalation will define the next chapter. 🔥
