Protest outside Defense Ministry grows with calls for Netanyahu to resign
A protest started outside the Defense Ministry in Tel Aviv by a family member of one of the people being held hostage by Hamas swells to dozens of people.
Many hold signs with the names and pictures of those missing or held captive following the massive assault launched by Hamas last Saturday that killed more than 1,300 people, most of them civilians.
Others wave Israeli flags and signs saying that Prime Minister Benjamin Netanyahu is responsible for the devastating failure and calling on him to resign.
