Tens of thousands of Israelis have taken part in the country’s biggest anti-government protest since the 7th October attack by Hamas. The protesters want Prime Minister Netanyahu to resign for failing to bring home the remaining 130 Israeli hostages still in Gaza. It’s not known how many are still alive. Netanyahu says he’s doing everything he can and intends to remain as prime minister. Around 33,000 people have been killed in Gaza since the start of Israel’s military response to the attack, according to the Hamas-run health ministry.
