Organizers of Tel Aviv rally for hostages report turnout of 120,000
The organizers of the Tel Aviv rally for the hostages say 120,000 people have attended tonight’s demonstration.
The Hostages and Missing Families Forum also firmly denies any connection to a small group of protesters who briefly blocked Tel Aviv’s Ayalon Highway earlier this evening, before being dispersed by police.
The blocking of the highway came soon after a separate demonstration calling for new elections was held at Habima Square.
