Protest calling for a hostage deal outside Defense Ministry Headquarters in Tel Aviv, February 1, 2024. (Avshalom Sassoni/Flash90)
Traffic on Begin Boulevard in Tel Aviv has resumed after protesters blocked the major thoroughfare outside Defense Ministry headquarters to rally for a deal that would free hostages held in Gaza.
Traffic on the road was stopped for about an hour.
Hundreds are taking part in the protest, which occurs as the War Cabinet meets at the headquarters, known as the Kirya, presumably regarding a deal seemingly coming together to cease fighting to free civilian hostages.
