Thousands of Israelis stage general strike to demand Gaza swap deal, end war
Thousands of Israelis staged a nationwide strike on Sunday, blocking highways in multiple cities to pressure the Benjamin Netanyahu government to reach a prisoner swap deal with Palestinians and end its ongoing war in Gaza.
The general strike was called by families of Israeli captives held in Gaza, who fear that last week’s decision by the Israeli government to fully occupy Gaza would endanger the lives of their beloved ones.
