Thousands of Israelis took to the streets last night after the Israeli military announced that six hostages, including Hersh Goldberg-Polin, a dual Israeli-American citizen, were found dead in a tunnel beneath the Gaza Strip. The tragic discovery under the city of Rafah has sparked widespread outrage and grief, with many demonstrators demanding that Prime Minister Benjamin Netanyahu agree to a cease-fire to secure the release of the remaining hostages.
The protest marks one of the largest demonstrations since the war began nearly 11 months ago. Meanwhile, hardline elements within the Israeli government are calling for intensified military action in response to the hostages' deaths.
