Tel Aviv witnessed a resurgence of anti-government demonstrators on Saturday in the biggest display of discontent toward Prime Minister Benjamin Netanyahu's government for months.
The protests, which briefly subsided in the aftermath of the
Hamas-led breakout from Gaza on October 7, 2023, have regained traction as the Palestinian-Israeli conflict advances into its fourth month.
Despite calls for national unity after the attacks, many are now voicing their opposition to the government's handling of the crisis.
Saturday's
protests echoed demands for a snap election amid blaring air horns and drum beats. The flag-waving crowd faced off against riot police on horseback.
