Families of Israeli hostages are increasingly vocal about their frustrations, holding emergency protests after the release of disturbing videos showing their loved ones in dire conditions. Many protestors in Tel Aviv are demanding a ceasefire and expressing dissent against the ongoing war in Gaza, with some reports indicating that three out of four Israelis wish to end the conflict. U.S. envoy Steve Witkoff met with hostage families, assuring them of efforts to resolve the situation despite the complexities involved. Meanwhile, tensions are rising as protests clash with police and calls for lifting restrictions on humanitarian aid to Gaza gain momentum. The families fear their loved ones are being forgotten, with some describing the situation as akin to a Holocaust. As demonstrations swell, the Israeli government faces increasing pressure from the public to take decisive action to bring the hostages home.
