🇮🇱 Israel Ceasefire Collapses! Jerusalem Buses Come to a Halt—Why Are People Protesting?

Today has been a crazy day. In terms of transportation, buses in the area around the Prime Minister’s residence came to a standstill due to protests. People were sitting on the roads, blocking traffic, so the buses couldn’t move. The drivers didn’t leave work either—they just sat in their buses waiting. Everyone had to walk home. Even now, my ears are still filled with the sound of honking horns, though maybe they just hurt because it’s too cold. Yesterday (Tuesday) morning, Israel resumed military operations in Gaza after the ceasefire agreement collapsed. On top of that, the Prime Minister's decision to dismiss the Shin Bet chief sparked public outrage, leading Israelis to take to the streets in protest starting last night—and for who knows how long. Israelis deeply love their country, and because Israel is a democracy, people can freely express their opinions on the streets. Many hoped the ceasefire would hold to prevent further war and bring the hostages home as soon as possible. They have already endured 530 days of agony and cannot bear to see the war restart and their hopes for the hostages' return shattered. Of course, those protesting do not represent everyone’s opinion. Regardless of political stance, no Israeli wants the war to continue or the hostages to remain in captivity. The real question is: How do we achieve those goals? Since negotiations between Israel and Hamas have broken down, the only remaining option seems to be continued military action—to deter Hamas and to hope for the chance to rescue the hostages. It’s just so difficult.
