Hundreds of Israelis took to the streets in Tel Aviv on Saturday, carrying anti-war banners and chanting slogans against Prime Minister Benjamin Netanyahu to protest the ongoing war with Iran.
Demonstrators gathered in a central square in Tel Aviv, holding signs that read: "Don't bomb - talk! End the endless wars!"
Police are trying to silence our voices. We are here to demand an end to the war in Iran, the war in Lebanon, and the war in Gaza, which is still going on, as well as an end to the pogroms in the West Bank," Alon-Lee Green, the co-director of Israeli-Palestinian grassroots group Standing Together, told news agency AFP.
There is a lot of scepticism in Israel about the Netanyahu government's justification for the war with Iran, with people viewing it as a tactic by the PM to stop the corruption trial against him.
Bennjamin Netanyahu has remained defiant despite regular protests against him and the war, vowing to press ahead with the military campaign against Iran.
