Thousands of demonstrators gathered in Haifa, Israel, to protest against Prime Minister Benjamin Netanyahu. The protesters rallied in Auditorium Square in Haifa and formed a convoy with their vehicles, proceeding along the road in front of Netanyahu's residence in the Qisarya district of the same city.
The protesters expressed their opposition to the policies of the government and criticized Netanyahu for his handling of the security situation on October 7, resulting in the death of 1,400 people and nearly 250 captives.
Police set up barricades to prevent the protesters from reaching Netanyahu's house. Demonstrators carried banners with messages such as "Netanyahu's hands are covered with the blood of our children" and "Netanyahu, shame on you." They also chanted slogans against the prime minister.
During the protest, there were discussions between the demonstrators and supporters of Netanyahu who arrived later.
