Tens of thousands of Israeli supporters marched from Tel Aviv to Jerusalem this week in protest of government inaction on rescuing hostages.
Families of Israeli hostages taken by Hamas were the focal point of the support as the procession marched over the course of three days.
The march is set to end on Saturday in front of Israeli Prime Minister Benjamin Netanyahu’s residence.

After the protest, the families of Israeli hostages are set to meet with war cabinet Minister Benny Gantz and cabinet observer Minister Gadi Eisenkot.
The families have demanded to meet with Netanyahu, Defense Minister Yoav Gallant and cabinet observer Strategic Affairs Minister Ron Dermer — but such requests have been met with silence.
