Peace talks have stalled in Cairo as Israel continues its bombardment of Rafah, while Israelis took to the streets demanding the release of hostages held by Hamas in Gaza.
Shouting "Elections now!" and "Bring back the hostages now!", thousands of Israeli demonstrators gathered in Tel Aviv to demand the departure of Prime Minister Benjamin Netanyahu after five months of war in Gaza. With t-shirts and banners featuring the names and pictures of hostages seized during Hamas's 7 October , the crowd demanded swift action to rescue the remaining captives .
The 12-floor building was damaged in the strike on Saturday, and residents said dozens of families were made homeless, though no casualties were reported. Israel's military said the block was being used by Hamas to plan attacks on Israelis. One of the 300 residents of the tower, which is located some 500 metres from the border with Egypt, told Reuters Israel gave them a 30-minute warning to flee the building at night.
