More than 1,200 protests have taken place in Israel since October 7, most calling for a ceasefire deal.
Large-scale anti-government protests are continuing across Israel as pressure grows for Prime Minister Benjamin Netanyahu to secure a ceasefire deal in Gaza.
On Monday, Israel’s largest trade union called for a general strike after the military recovered the bodies of six Israeli captives in southern Gaza.
This week’s demonstration marks some of the largest protests Israel has seen, with an estimated 500,000 people gathering in Tel Aviv and other cities.
According to data compiled by the Armed Conflict Location and Event Data Project (ACLED), between October 7, 2023 and August 30, there have been at least 1,240 demonstrations across Israel and they are becoming steadily more frequent.
Of the demonstrations analysed, fewer than 20 were classed as nonpolitical by ACLED.
