Families of hostages plan Passover Seder protest outside Netanyahu's home, demanding their release; nationwide rallies criticize the government's handling of the situation.
The protests took place in various locations in the city. Groups gathered outside the Tel Aviv Museum of Art at Hostages Square and blocked several streets.
A woman in a Keffiyeh shouted at a pro-Israel activist, "We are Hamas," outside Columbia on Wednesday. "We're all Hamas," she said at the counter-protesters that had rallied outside the university.
The Popular Front for the Liberation of Palestine is designated as a terrorist organization by numerous countries and international organizations, including the US, EU, Canada, and Israel.
The demonstrators wore yellow clothes and held Israeli flags.
The protesters placed burning barrels on the highway and carried banners and signs, chanting into megaphones "Alive, alive! We want them alive!" "Shame!" and "Deal now!"
Jewish officials who have visited the embassy have complained to the State Department about the intensity of the protest, including the loud air raid siren.
"You are quite openly Jewish; this is a pro-Palestinian march, I'm not accusing you of anything, but I'm worried about the reaction to your presence," said a police sergeant.
The protesters were arrested and put on administrative after refusing to leave Google Cloud CEO Thomas Kurian’s Sunnyvale office or the New York City Chelsea workspace.
