Israeli protesters call the government to resign ’to save Israel’
Anti-government protesters converged on Jerusalem on Monday, calling for new elections in an effort to replace Prime Minister Netanyahu, who once again sits atop one of the most right-wing coalitions in Israel’s history.
A wartime unity government fell apart a week ago when two centrist former generals, Benny Gantz and Gadi Eisenkot, quit, leaving Netanyahu dependent on ultra-Orthodox and far-right partners. Their hardline agenda caused a major rift in Israeli society even before Hamas’ Oct. 7 assault sparked the war in Gaza.
Following Gantz’s departure, opposition groups declared a week of street protests that include blocking highways and mass demonstrations.
By sundown, a crowd of thousands had gathered outside the Knesset, Israel’s parliament, and planned to march to Netanyahu’s private home in the city.
