Relatives of Israeli hostages held in Gaza took to the streets for a third day, urging the government to accept a new deal with Hamas before it was too late.

Hundreds of thousands of Israelis took to the streets on Sunday, launching a nationwide grassroots strike and widespread protests to demand the government secure the release of 50 hostages still in Gaza.

Israel witnessed one of its largest demonstrations since the outbreak of the Gaza genocidal campaign, as around 500,000 protestors took to the streets.
