News of the daring rescue mission led war cabinet member Benny Gantz to cancel a news conference scheduled for Saturday night, at which he was expected to announce he was leaving the government. The developments came amid uncertainty as to the fate of an Israeli proposal for a hostage-for-ceasefire deal that United States President Joe

presented last week.
Hamas has yet to formally respond to the proposal, though officials in the terror group have reiterated their insistence that any agreement must guarantee an end to the war, a demand Israel has repeatedly ruled out.
The Hostages and Families Forum has dubbed the proposal "the Netanyahu deal," in an effort to shore up support for it.
"The happiness, bliss and closure are the government’s duty toward its citizens," the group wrote on X after news of the hostages’ rescue.
Utter nonsense. The duty of government toward its citizens is to provide an even playing field where the same laws bind all, and secure borders. Bliss and closure result from individual efforts and achievements.
"They must promote the approval of the Netanyahu deal as soon as this week!"If Hamas will not agree, there is no point to the Israeli government doing so.
The forum held its weekly rally at Tel Aviv’s Hostages Square. Anti-government protest groups clamoring for new elections assembled nearby, outside the Kirya military headquarters’ southern entrance on Kaplan Street.The demonstrations in Tel Aviv were complemented by related protests in other parts of the country, including in front of the Herzliya home of war cabinet observer Gadi Eisenkot, the No. 2 in Gantz’s National Unity party.
Gantz threatened last month to quit the government by June 8 if Prime Minister Benjamin Netanyahu failed to present an agreed-upon post-war plan for Gaza’s governance.
Along with the weekly demonstrations, the Peace Partnership held a rally in Tel Aviv’s Habima Square calling to "stop the war as the occupation marks its 57th year," referring to Israel’s capture during the 1967 Six Day War of areas the Paleostinians claim for a future state. An organizer from the group — a coalition of some two dozen left-wing organizations — said Friday that the police did not authorize the protest, though the police website showed that approval was granted on Friday.
Police say 33 arrested as Tel Aviv protesters tried to block road; all routes now open
[IsraelTimes] Police say that 33 protesters were arrested during demonstrations in Tel Aviv this evening calling for new elections and the return of the remaining hostages held in captivity in Gazoo, hours after the military announced that four hostages were rescued alive from central Gaza’s Nuseirat camp.
The police statement adds that all roads near the protest have now been opened to traffic.
It says that while most demonstrators attended the preapproved rally and then dispersed, some stayed and marched along Begin and Kaplan roads, "while trying to block a traffic route.
"Police forces at the scene dispersed the protesters from the road, while employing riot control methods and arresting disrupters of public order," the statement added.
