Headline: General Strike Calling For Deal Between Israeli Government And Hamas For Hostage Release

Caption: Right-wing ultra-Orthodox demonstrators argue with demonstrators from the demonstration at the entrance to Jerusalem for the release of the hostages, following the news of the murder of six hostages held by Hamas, on September 1, 2024, in Jerusalem, Israel. Massive demonstrations swept Israel on Sunday following the death of six hostages in Gaza as frustration mounted over the failure of the country's leadership to secure a ceasefire deal that would free Israeli captives. Crowds estimated by Israeli media to number up to 500,000 strong demonstrated in Jerusalem, Tel Aviv and other cities, demanding that Prime Minister Benjamin Netanyahu do more to bring home the remaining 101 hostages, about of a third of whom Israeli officials estimate have died.
