The 2024 Israeli protests are a series of demonstrations,[1] instances of civil disorder,[2] and riots[3] against Israeli Prime Minister Benjamin Netanyahu and his government, primarily sparked by the Israel–Hamas war and the hostage crisis. The protests aim to pressure Netanyahu to accept a ceasefire and reach a hostage deal. The protests began sporadically at the onset of the war but have grown significantly in size and intensity, culminating in massive gatherings across various Israeli cities.[4][5][6]
On 1 September 2024, after six hostages were found killed in the Gaza Strip, the protest organizations announced a day of demonstrations, with more than 500,000 people having protested throughout the country and outside of it for a hostage deal. The Histadrut went on a day of strike the following day.[7]
