An estimated 1,20,000 people gathered at Tel Aviv’s “Hostage Square” to mark the 100th day since about 240 individuals were kidnapped and taken into Gaza during Hamas’ October 7 terror onslaught, The Times of Israel reported. This 24-hour rally, one of the largest in Israel over the past year, brought together families of the hostages, dignitaries, and concerned citizens.
Relatives of the approximately 132 hostages still in Gaza expressed their frustration with the government’s perceived lack of action since the kidnapping. They warned that time was running out to save their loved ones and criticised the government for neglecting its responsibility to protect citizens on October 7.
