Protesters gather outside the Weizman Institute in Rehovot, calling for the government to resign and an immediate deal for the return of hostages held in the Gaza Strip.
The families of hostages held in Gaza will gather for the main demonstration in Tel Aviv later at night, with a high-profile lineup of international speakers and musicians to demand the release of the 125 hostages still held by Hamas since October 7, who hold citizenship from 24 countries.
