In Tel Aviv, protests have again erupted against Benjamin Netanyahu. Demonstrators have accused the Israeli prime minister of rejecting peace deals to serve his own political ends, as Gaza mourns the 20 dead killed in airstrikes on a hospital in Khan Younis.

Protesters blocked a highway near Tel Aviv during Israel’s “Day of Disruption,” demanding an end to the war and the return of hostages.

Pressure is growing on Israeli Prime Minister Benjamin Netanyahu to negotiate with Hamas. In Gaza, Israeli airstrikes continue, including a double strike that hit Nasser Hospital in Khan Younis, killing at least 20 civilians, among them five journalists.
