Hostage families protest outside of IDF HQ before cabinet meeting on hostage deal

Members of the Hostage and Missing Families Forum have begun a protest outside of the "Kirya" (IDF headquarters) in Tel Aviv, ahead of the cabinet meeting that will determine Israel's official position on Hamas's new demands on a hostage deal, Israeli media sources reported on Sunday.

Additionally, reports claimed that protests had blocked the cars of MKs Avi Dichter, Miri Regev, and Gideon Sa'ar from entering the Prime Minister's office.

The cabinet reportedly began their meeting at 6:30 p.m. Israel time.

A decision was meant to be made on Friday, but the cabinet meeting ended early because it was scheduled too close to Shabbat.
