Some 200 protesters have arrived at another demonstration in Jerusalem, being held near the Knesset at the Prime Minister’s Office, as the war cabinet is believed to be meeting inside.
Some activists are holding two large banners, one of which reads “End the war,” and the other “Starvation is a war crime.”
The demonstration is smaller than the one near Paris Square.
The tone is sharper at this demonstration, but the crowd does not march and the atmosphere remains peaceful. The crowd chants “We won’t stop until they’re all home!” accompanied by a few drummers.
