Protesters calling for an end to the war in Gaza and the return of captives took to the streets in Tel Aviv on Tuesday morning, Middle East Eye reported. 

Israeli media reported others rallying near a US embassy branch in the city, as well as outside the houses of various ministers.

Einav Zangauker, the mother of an Israeli captive, accused Prime Minister Benjamin Netanyahu of not returning the captives because of personal interests.

"We could have ended the war a year ago and brought all the hostages and soldiers home. We could have saved the hostages and soldiers, but the prime minister has chosen again and again to sacrifice civilians for his rule," she said.
