Protestors commemorating 1,000 days since the October 7 massacre blocked the Ayalon Highway in Tel Aviv.<\/p>\n

Earlier on Thursday, Israel Police clashed with protesters outside the Knesset. They have arrested eight protestors who were blocking traffic, and the Ayalon Highway has reopened.<\/p>\n

Protesters told Ynet that police were attempting to disperse them violently.<\/p>\n

Israelis across the country commemorated the day with a moment of silence<\/a> at 6:29 a.m. and protests at several junctions.<\/p>\n

Yellow-clad protestors holding flags and signs in commemoration of the attacks<\/a> blocked traffic at the Karkur Junction near Haifa.<\/p>\n

“1,000 days. We won’t forget, and we won’t forgive,” read one sign outside the Knesset, while banners on the Ayalon Freeway read “1,000 days of shiva [mourning].”<\/p>\n

A similar group stood at the Kabri Junction in the Galilee.<\/p>\n

There, some protestors demanded a National Commission of Inquiry into the events of October 7, a call that has been rejected by the right-wing government since the attack.<\/p>\n

“1,000 days of burying the truth,” read a banner held by two protestors.<\/p>\n

Protesters have also gathered around the homes of prominent Knesset members, including Education Minister Yoav Kish in Hod Hasharon and Knesset Speaker Amir Ohana in Tel Aviv.<\/p>\n

Protesters outside Ohana’s home condemned Prime Minister Benjamin Netanyahu<\/a> after remarks he made in an interview with Channel 14, in which he joked that all that’s changed for him since October 7 was losing a little weight.<\/p>\n

Another group of protestors arranged for a “wake up call” at the home of Culture and Sports Minister, MIki Zohar, at 7:10 a.m.<\/p>\n

“This is a psychopathic leader who, since October 7, has lost weight – that’s what he has been through since then. Zero in management, zero in responsibility, zero in leadership,” the protesters said.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"Protestors commemorating 1,000 days since the October 7 massacre blocked the Ayalon Highway in Tel Aviv.
