A US poll showed collapsing support among 18–34 year-olds as Gaza protests grew increasingly common across Western capitals.

Israel has “work” to do in winning over young people in the West as polls show collapsing support, Prime Minister Benjamin Netanyahu admitted to a UK-based podcast in an interview aired on Wednesday.

The Hostages and Missing Families Forum, which organized the "Israel on Hold” protests, said that over a million people took part in the demonstrations across the country on Sunday. Per the organization, almost 500,000 protesters gathered in Tel Aviv’s Hostage Square.

Home Affairs Minister Tony Burke rebukes the Israeli prime minister's attack on Anthony Albanese as he defends the decision to cancel the visa of a member of Benjamin Netanyahu's coalition.

Some members of Israel’s coalition have ruled out a proposed hostage deal with Hamas, but the prime minister has yet to state his position.

The Israeli PM’s expansionist rhetoric has shaken the Arab world, with a former top UAE adviser calling him ‘no less dangerous than Hitler’.

In the statement, the Israeli PM also mentioned that the Netanyahu government and IDF are working on their plans regarding Gaza City.

Few of the Israelis taken hostage in the Hamas-led attack on Oct. 7, 2023, have drawn as much attention as the Bibas family — two parents and two small children. For many Israelis, their abductions came to symbolize the brutality of the assault.
