Estimates say 500,000 demonstrators hit the streets of Tel Aviv: AJE correspondent
Al Jazeera’s Hamdah Salhut joins live from Amman, Jordan. Salhut reports that Al Jazeera is covering the story from outside Israel due to being banned by the Israeli government.
She notes that this is the largest protest in Israel’s history at a single location. Organizers estimate that 500,000 people have taken to the streets of Tel Aviv, with another 250,000 protesting across the coun-try, including in West Jerusalem, Haifa, and Rishon LeZion.
These demonstrations come during a week of consecutive protests, following the Israeli army’s an-nouncement that it had recovered the bodies of six captives in Gaza, a move that has angered the Is-raeli public.
Salhut highlights that the families of the captives are blaming Prime Minister Netanyahu, accusing him of having blood on his hands and being the main obstacle to a ceasefire deal.
