The situation in Israel is escalating. This was reported by Zamin.uz.
Hundreds of people have gathered near Prime Minister Benjamin Netanyahu's house in Jerusalem, holding protests. Among the protesters, tensions have risen, and fires were set to garbage containers and car tires.
This was reported by “The Jerusalem Post.” The protesters' main demand is to reach an agreement on the release of prisoners in the Gaza Strip.
They accuse the government of not taking practical measures. According to police reports, damage in the Rehavia and Givat Ram districts mainly affected vehicles, with no serious injuries reported.
A group of protesters climbed onto the roof of the National Library building, displaying slogans such as “The government is not doing enough for prisoners held by HAMAS.” Meanwhile, several cars took the Latrun road to Jerusalem, demanding an end to the war and the release of prisoners.
According to information, these protests are being held as part of the “Movement to Protect the Rights of Prisoners in Gaza.” The protests coincided with the government's ongoing plan to capture Gaza.
Reports indicate that HAMAS accepted a prisoner exchange proposal offered through Qatar, but Netanyahu rejected it. Official data states that currently, 20 Israeli prisoners are alive in Gaza, while 28 have died.
The Israeli army has been conducting a ground operation for 30 days, fully surrounding the city. Air and artillery strikes often affect civilians as well.
In the past 24 hours, 119 Palestinians, including two journalists and many civilians in need of assistance, have been killed. The humanitarian situation in the region is worsening.
Thousands of people are temporarily living in tents on the western coast of Gaza. International organizations report that there is no safe place left for the population in the area.
It is recalled that since October 7, 2023, over 63,000 Palestinians have died as a result of Israeli strikes. According to health institutions, 367 people, including 131 children, have died from starvation.
Although the Israeli government has acknowledged food shortages in Gaza, it denies allegations of mass starvation.
