The 2024 Israeli protests are a series of protests,[1] civil unrest[2] and riots[3] against Israeli prime minister Benjamin Netanyahu and his government, primarily sparked by the Israel–Hamas war. The protests mainly aims at pressuring Netanyahu to accept a ceasefire and hostage deal.[4] These protests began sporadically at the onset of the war and have significantly grown in size and intensity, culminating in massive gatherings across various Israeli cities.[5] Anti-war protests and anti-humanitarian aid protests have also taken place, although they were smaller in scale.[6][7]
Many in the protests are left-leaning and against the escalation of the war, calling for a ceasefire and a prisoner exchange.[8] Netanyahu has been accused by protesters of intentionally sabotaging negotiations on a long-term ceasefire and hostage deal for his own political survival.[9]
