Thousands of people rallied in Tel Aviv and Jerusalem to demand a deal to free hostages held in Gaza for over 450 days, after Hamas released a video showing captive soldier Liri Albag alive. Anti-government protests turned restless in Tel Aviv, resulting in arrests. Albag is one of 96 hostages believed to still be in captivity in Gaza. Relatives of hostages urged the public to take to the streets en masse at the weekly Saturday night demonstrations. Protesters called on US President-elect Donald Trump to end the war in Gaza and secure a deal.
