Relatives of Israeli captives still in Gaza have called for Israeli Prime Minister Netanyahu’s resignation following the government’s inability to establish a ceasefire and have their family members released, Al Jazeera reports.

“We have the same deal on the table since, I guess, the beginning,” Nimrod Shachar, a protester, said. “Netanyahu must gain some courage and insist that he is going to retrieve all the hostages. And if, in order to return them, we need to stop the war and have a ceasefire, let’s have it.”

Protesters had their hands painted red and were carrying pictures of the captives during a demonstration in Tel Aviv.

“I hope that for this time, it (ceasefire talks) won’t be a disappointment like last time or the time before that,” Shahar Mor Zahiro, whose uncle Abraham Munder is a captive, said. “We already had like six or seven cycles of hope and despair. But what can we do? We are clinging on to any hope there is.”
