Massive protests have erupted in Israel following the retrieval of six dead hostages from Gaza. The Families of the Hostages and Missing Persons Forum has called for a general strike and a major demonstration in Tel Aviv, urging the government to immediately reach an agreement for the release of the remaining hostages.

The Histadrut, Israel's largest labor union, has been asked to join the strike. Opposition leader Jair Lapid has also called for a general strike, criticizing Prime Minister Benjamin Netanyahu for not saving the hostages.

Israel's Defense Minister, Joav Gallant, has urged the government to reverse its decision on the presence of Israeli troops in the Philadelphi Corridor, a key point of contention in ceasefire negotiations and hostage release. The situation has led to widespread anger and protests, with demands for a truce and the release of the remaining hostages.
