A group of Israeli activists have stormed a live television broadcast to protest against the continuation of Israel’s military campaign in Gaza, Al Jazeera reports.

Wearing ‘Leave Gaza’ t-shirts, several young members of the Standing Together activist group jumped onto the stage and sat on the floor during the airing of the Big Brother show on Channel 13.

In a social media post, Standing Together said its members “gave a speech against the government’s plan to continue the horrors in Gaza, a plan that will kill the hostages, kill the Palestinians in Gaza, and kill the soldiers”.

It added: “There is no normalcy alongside this reality, no business as usual.”
