Israel protests: Organisers claim largest-ever rally in Tel Aviv as calls for captive deal grow

An estimated 750,000 Israelis took to the streets in one of Israel’s biggest-ever protests as anger boils over at the government’s failure to bring those held captive home. Many people have been arrested as protesters call on Prime Minister Benjamin Netanyahu to do a deal to bring home captives in Gaza. Demonstrators accuse the police of using excessive force. Al Jazeera’s Hamdah Salhut reports from the Jordanian capital Amman, because the Israeli government has banned Al Jazeera from reporting inside Israel. Libby Lenkinski is the Vice President of Public Engagement at the New Israel Fund. It works to support democracy and social justice in Israel. She says it is unclear whether the protests can persuade Benjamin Netanyahu to agree on a captive deal.
