In Israel, protests against the government's plan to invade Gaza drew 220,000 participants. This reflects the public's growing anger towards the government.

The protests were organized to demand the government halt military operations in Gaza and sign a prisoner exchange agreement. Demonstrations took place in many cities, especially Tel Aviv.

Israeli Prime Minister Netanyahu criticized the protesters, stating that the strikes on Gaza would be prolonged due to the strikes. However, the public remains determined to oppose the government's war efforts.

The growth of protests is seen as a sign of public discontent with the government's policies. Families of hostages are urgently calling for the government to act to rescue the hostages.

The anti-government protests are considered an important step for democracy and human rights in Israel. The public is demanding peace and justice.
