Demonstrators are gathering outside the Kirya military headquarters in Tel Aviv, calling for early elections and for the government to be ousted.
Many attendees are wearing shirts calling for the immediate dismissal of Prime Minister Benjamin Netanyahu and the release of hostages, as well as shirts identified with various protest groups from the anti-judicial overhaul demonstrations that occurred weekly prior to October 7.
In addition to the main podium, a group of IDF veterans who fought in the 1973 Yom Kippur War are standing on a separate stage nearby, making speeches calling for Netanyahu’s removal.
The police have barricaded Kaplan Street’s Democracy Square, close to where the protest is being held, to prevent demonstrators from coming down and blocking the Ayalon Highway, as they did last week.
Help us report truthfully on social media
As a multimedia journalist, my job is to take the quality, fact-based journalism produced by The Times of Israel newsroom and make it accessible across every platform — from Instagram posts to podcasts to short-form videos.
This is how many, especially young people, consume news these days. But misinformation is rampant on social media. Our team at ToI produces accurate, responsible short-form reporting on Israel and the Jewish world.
If you believe in the importance of factual social media journalism, please consider joining our reader support group, The Times of Israel Community. Your financial support is essential to sustain responsible multimedia reporting.
