It’s always the same meeting every Saturday evening for a year and a half. Naama comes to demonstrate: “ Week after week, I demonstrated against judicial reform, and since October 7, not only has nothing changed, but the worst catastrophe in the history ofIsrael has arrived, and this government does not want to take responsibility. »
There are thousands of them in Tel Aviv – Israeli flags in hand – and photos of the hostages on t-shirts. We find the same demand on all the signs: a ceasefire agreement. For Maya, “ it is time to end this war, bring back the hostages and save lives, whether on the Israeli or Palestinian side “. The young woman, 36, also demonstrates regularly.
“ I will demonstrate every week »
Six months pregnant, she worries about the future of her future child: “ I will use these three months as much as possible, I will demonstrate every week, I will do everything so that he is born in a better country and a better world. »
A fight on all fronts – if all eyes are on Gaza – Maya is worried about the north of the country: “ In total, 20% of the population is displaced. We must find a way to resolve this conflict, and in Gaza, and in the north, with an agreement “. The procession ends in front of the headquarters of Likud, the party of Benyamin Netanyahu. Fires are lit at the entrance – the police end up using force to disperse the demonstrators – three people are arrested.
