Hundreds of Israelis march in protest against renewed Israeli strikes on Gaza

Hundreds are marching on the outskirts of Jerusalem to protest against Israel's renewed war on Gaza and call for the return of captives.

Dozens of protesters also gathered outside the Knesset in Jerusalem. The demonstration's attendants included the parents of released captives Omer Shem Tov and Omer Wenkert.

Omer Wenkert criticised Israel's renewed strikes in Gaza on Instagram, saying the return to war was "a very dangerous step".

"Have you listened to a single word that we, the hostages who came out of the last stage, have said to you? Can you see us?" he said.

Liri Albag, an Israeli soldier who was released from captivity about two months ago, also expressed deep disappointment with the renewal of fighting in Gaza. 

"What about those [hostages] who were left behind? Once again they are forgotten," she said in an Instagram post.
