Anti-War Protests Erupt in Tel Aviv as Regional Conflict Escalates
Hundreds of demonstrators gathered in central Tel Aviv to protest the ongoing war with Iran, calling for an immediate ceasefire and the prioritisation of diplomatic negotiations. The protests occurred despite Home Front Command restrictions on mass gatherings. Police detained several activists, while protesters accused the government of using security measures to suppress political dissent. Similar demonstrations were reported in Iraq as regional populations reacted to the mounting human and economic costs of the five-week-old war.
