”We are shutting down the country to save the soldiers and the hostages", said the families on Sunday. On Tuesday, Israel's opposition leader, Yair Lapid, announces that he supports the strike.
”Strike on Sunday”, he writes on X.
Hebrew University in Jerusalem will also go on strike ”in solidarity with the families of the hostages”, states the university management in a statement according to Haaretz.
”The state of Israel has no future without the hostages coming home”, writes the management.
