Hundreds of protesters are calling for a hostage-ceasefire deal on Azza Street in Jerusalem within police barricades several hundred meters from Prime Minister Benjamin Netanyahu’s home.

Protesters are making tremendous amounts of noise with hundreds of horns as hostage family members speak on a podium.

“Your decisions are leading to their deaths,” Nissan Calderon, the brother of hostage Ofer Calderon, says, addressing Netanyahu.

Protests are being held across the country after the bodies of six hostages who were recently executed were returned to Israel.
