Thousands of Israeli reservists from all branches of the military have signed letters demanding that Israel stop the fighting and concentrate instead on reaching a deal to bring back the remaining 59 hostages being held by Hamas .

"We came to the conclusion that Israel is going to a very bad place," Danny Yatom , a former head of the spy agency Mossad told me.

On 20 April , the police briefly told protesters that "pictures of children or babies from Gaza " would not be permitted, along with posters displaying the words "genocide" or "ethnic cleansing". Following expressions of outrage from the organisers, the police quickly backed down. Meanwhile, the prime minister continues to speak of his determination to defeat Hamas . Military pressure, Netanyahu continues to insist, is the only way to bring the hostages home..
