About 400 people lining both sides of Tel Aviv’s Kaplan Street hold up candles and pictures of Palestinian children who were killed in Gaza by the IDF since Israel resumed hostilities against Hamas on March 18.
Each child’s picture includes his or her name as well as date and place of death.
The activists continue standing silently as anti-government protesters pass by on their way from Habima Square to Begin Road.
The weekly Kaplan Street vigil did not take place last Saturday, with its organizer, the Peace Partnership coalition of numerous left-wing groups, urging activists to instead attend a large anti-war demonstration in Haifa.
