Protesters march from Jerusalem’s Zion Square to Paris Square, calling for the release of the hostages held by Hamas in Gaza since October 7, 2023.

Some anti-government activists carry a large banner criticizing Prime Minister Benjamin Netanyahu amid an ongoing investigation into the alleged leak of classified documents from his office.

The banner reads, “A spy in my office? I didn’t see anything. Netanyahu – a useful idiot.”

Other protesters wave yellow flags, representing the hostages, and Israeli flags.

Simultaneous anti-government protests are taking place around the country, as they do every Saturday evening, in locations including Tel Aviv, Kfar Saba, Karkur and Hadera.
