Dozens protest outside US Embassy in Tel Aviv in support of hostage deal
Family members of hostages are joined by dozens of allies in a protest outside the US Embassy Branch in Tel Aviv for the second time in recent days in support of making a deal with Hamas that will facilitate the release of the hostages held in Gaza.
The crowd outside the embassy branch calls for US President Joe Biden to pressure the Israeli government into accepting a deal for the release of the hostages.
Earlier today, a similar protest was held outside the US Consulate in Jerusalem.
