Anti-Government Demonstrations Held In Tel Aviv, Following Netanyahu's Proposal For Occupation Of Gaza City

TEL AVIV, ISRAEL - AUGUST 9: Demonstrators hold banners depicting photos of hostages as they listen to a speaker during the ""Families of Hostages Rally" " calling for an end to the war and against the expansion of the war in hostage square on August 9, 2025 in Tel Aviv, Israel. On Thursday, Israeli Prime Minister Benjamin Netanyahu put forward plans to expand the IDF's occupation of the Gaza Strip to take complete control of Gaza City. The proposal has been widely condemned by the international community, as well as hostage families, who say such a move would further endanger hostages still believed to be held alive by Hamas in Gaza, as well as one million Palestinians in Gaza City who are already facing displacement and an acute hunger crisis.
