Tens of thousands of Israelis protesting against Israeli Prime Minister Benjamin Netanyahu gathered in front of the Israeli parliament building in Jerusalem yesterday, Reuters reported, quoted by BTA. Demonstrators waved Israeli flags and chanted that they wanted early elections.
According to Israeli news channel An 12, it was apparently the largest demonstration since the start of the war in Gaza.
Israeli Prime Minister Benjamin Netanyahu was successfully operated on for a hernia, his office announced yesterday, as quoted by France Press. Netanyahu is “fit and beginning to recover,” the prime minister’s office said in a statement released after the operation, which took place Sunday night.
About 600 Israeli soldiers have been killed so far in the war against Hamas. These are the biggest sacrifices made by the Israeli military in years.
Yesterday was the deadline for the Israeli government to resolve the issue in the long-standing stalemate over the exemption of the ultra-Orthodox from conscription. The Supreme Court, however, gave the government until April 30 to submit additional arguments on the matter.
But on Thursday, Israel’s Supreme Court again ordered the suspension of state subsidies for ultra-Orthodox Jews who study in religious seminaries, known as yeshiva, instead of doing military service. The magistrates’ ruling stated that the existing system privileged ultra-Orthodox Israelis at the expense of the secular Jewish public.
The Israeli army is withdrawing tanks from the Ash Shifa hospital in Gaza City, an AFP journalist stated early this morning, quoted by BTA.
Tanks and Israeli army vehicles left the hospital grounds they entered two weeks ago. According to an AFP journalist in the area of the hospital, the army fired shells to cover the withdrawal of its tanks and left the Ar Rimal neighborhood to head towards the southwest of Gaza City.
The Health Ministry of “Hamas” said today that it found dozens of corpses in the hospital “Ash Shifa” after the withdrawal of the Israeli army from there, reported France Press.
“Dozens of martyrs’ bodies, some of them decomposing, were found in and around the Ash Shifa hospital,” the ministry said in a statement, adding that the hospital’s facilities had been severely damaged.
