Thousands of Israelis rallied in Tel Aviv late Tuesday to protest against the sacking of defence minister Yoav Gallant, calling on his successor Israel Katz to prioritise a deal to return the hostages still held in Gaza. Chanting slogans against the government and Prime Minister Benjamin Netanyahu, the demonstrators carrying Israeli flags gathered in the commercial centre shortly after Mr Gallant’s dismissal was announced. Protesters also blocked traffic and lit fires on the Ayalon motorway in Tel Aviv, with some wearing “Bring them home now” T-shirts, referring to the hostages.
