Tens and tens of thousands of people took to the streets of Tel Aviv starting at 6:30 a.m. (5:30 a.m. in Italy) for the national general strike called by the Forum of Hostage Families to demand an end to the war in Gaza and an agreement for the return of the hostages still held by Hamas.
The Israeli media reported the news, showing images of roadblocks on highways and main access routes.
The Forum expects one million people to gather in Hostage Square in Tel Aviv throughout the day, and hundreds of events across Israel involving tens of thousands of people.
