Hundreds of people are convened in Tel Aviv’s Hostages Square for an event marking 200 days of captivity for those held hostage by Hamas in the Gaza Strip.

The event, more intimate than the typical rallies staged by the Hostage and Missing Families Forum, is taking the form of a public Q&A panel, where attendees will ask questions to the speakers onstage — bereaved parents, internally displaced Israelis and survivors of the Supernova rave massacre.

Organizers are handing out notecards for audience members to write their questions for panelists onstage.
