Hours after a massive rally in support of the hostages, hundreds of demonstrators marched from Hostages’ Square to the nearby headquarters of Prime Minister Benjamin Netanyahu’s Likud party, where chaos unfolded late Sunday night.
Protesters lit a bonfire outside the Metzudat Ze’ev building and attempted to push toward its entrance, but were blocked by heavy police presence.
Videos circulating on social media show officers grappling violently with demonstrators, who were banging drums and chanting slogans denouncing the government’s handling of the hostage crisis. The clashes quickly escalated as police shoved back crowds determined to reach the Likud offices.
The dramatic standoff marked the latest eruption of public fury over the hostages still held in Gaza. While the Tel Aviv rally earlier in the evening had drawn tens of thousands in a show of solidarity, the confrontation at Likud headquarters underlined the mounting anger now directed squarely at the government.

And Hamas plus their Iranian patrons are literally laughing their heads off at all this, as they plot their next October 7th event.
Fake news alert. The story has clearly been written by a hostile foreign news agency. Why not give the source? The picture is at least attributed to the AP. The type in the picture was battling Bibi even harder before Oct. 7; just with a different slogan. Just like then, it has nothing to do with hostages. Rather it is part of Jewish history that constantly repeats itself and constantly punishes us.
These protests are funded by various anti Israel governments around the world. Even the Obama administration funneled millions of dollars to try to bring down the Natenyahu government. Even here in America the leftist rallies are funded by various sources.
Notice the difference between how the police act here as apposed to at a chareidi protest. Although the police are forcefully moving people, they are not hitting them with clubs!!!
Disgusting!
