‘Stop bullshitting us’: Hostage families block Tel Aviv highway, urge PM to seal hostage deal
Relatives of hostages and dozens of women-led protesters are blocking southbound traffic on Tel Aviv’s Ayalon Highway, protesting against Prime Minister Benjamin Netanyahu’s government and in favor of a hostage deal.
“Netanyahu is abandoning, Netanyahu isn’t fit [to serve],” they chant.
They put up an English-language banner saying “Stop bullshitting us,” referencing a phrase reportedly used by US President Joe Biden in a recent call with the premier when talking about a hostage deal.
