Activists in Israel have released black and yellow balloons near the perimeter with Gaza as they launched a “day of disruption” to mark nine months since Hamas’s October 7 attacks, Al Jazeera reports according to Israeli media.

The activists also plan to hold mass demonstrations across Israel today, including at the Kirya military headquarters in Tel Aviv. The events are part of what has been dubbed a “week of resistance”, where protesters will gather across the country to call for elections and a truce deal to secure the release of Israeli captives in Gaza.
