247 Hundreds of Israelis gathered in Tel Aviv on Saturday evening (30) to protest and demand the dismissal of the country's Prime Minister Benjamin Netanyahu. Protests were also registered in Caesarea, where the prime minister resides. The demonstrations took place “in a sober and solemn manner,” according to The Times of Israel. Netanyahu's opponents have called for him to leave office and hold immediate elections because of his management of the genocide against Palestinians in the Gaza Strip and his failure to guarantee the release of the remaining Hamas hostages.
Protesters held banners reading “Elections Now”; “The Cry of Mothers: Get Our Soldiers Out of Gaza Now”; “Diplomatic agreement”; “Israel will not survive unless we overthrow them.”
In a press conference also on Saturday, Netanyahu said there was a possible “movement” toward a new agreement to release the hostages, but also stressed that he did not want to “create excessive expectations.” “Hamas has given all kinds of ultimatums that we do not accept,” he said, noting that if a viable agreement is possible, “it will come to fruition.”
On the same occasion, the Prime Minister stated that he had no intention of resigning. On the contrary: he wants to stay in office until the “war” is over. While declaring that the attacks on Gaza would continue for many months, Netanyahu said: “My policy is clear: we will continue to fight until all the goals of the war are achieved, especially the elimination of Hamas and the release of all our hostages. “ .” . He further assured that “Gaza will no longer pose a threat to Israel.”
