Holly Patrick | Tuesday 14 January 2025 08:37 GMT. Hundreds of Israelis gathered in Jerusalem on Monday, 13 January, to protest against a potential ceasefire deal with Hamas. Relatives of hostages, wounded soldiers and reservists came together under the slogan “no mandate to surrender to Hamas“ and called on the government to release the hostages only through victory over Hamas.
Demonstrators marched from near Israel's parliament towards the Chords Bridge, lit with the blue and white Israeli flag, shouting slogans against humanitarian aid delivery to Gaza, prisoner exchanges or relinquishing conquered territory. Protester Tamar Gesundheit, 69, said, "Please President Trump, do not pressure us to give into Hamas. Pressure them to give in to us.".
