Exactly 500 days after the hostage-taking by the Islamist Hamas, relatives of Israeli abductees have remembered their fate with protests. The day of protest began with the blockade of several central streets, including in the coastal metropolis of Tel Aviv. 

A march to the parliament in Jerusalem, the Knesset, was also on the agenda.

73 hostages are still being held in the Gaza Strip, 36 of whom are probably no longer alive. The forum of relatives of the abductees had called for rallies and a day of fasting to mark the 500th day of their captivity under the slogan "Get them out of hell".

The attack by Hamas and other extremists from Gaza on southern Israel on October 7, 2023 was the trigger for the Gaza War. At the time, around 1,200 people were killed and around 250 were deported to the Gaza Strip. According to the Hamas-controlled health authority, more than 48,200 people were killed in the Gaza war.
