Israeli Prime Minister Benjamin Netanyahu said the rare anti-Hamas protests in the streets of Gaza over the past two days are proof that Israel’s policies are working.
“In recent days, we have seen something we have never seen before — public protests against Hamas rule in Gaza,” Netanyahu said in the Knesset, <a href="https://www.jns.org/netanyahu-gaza-protests-against-hamas-proof-our-policy-is-working/" target="_blank" rel="noopener">Jewish News Syndicate reported</a>. “This shows that our policy is working.”
Gazans <a href="https://www.dailywire.com/news/rare-anti-hamas-protests-erupt-in-gaza-as-residents-call-for-peace" target="_blank" rel="noopener">took to the streets</a> Tuesday and Wednesday all around the strip, calling for an end to Hamas rule, in a rare display of opposition to the terrorist group.
Protesters marched through Beit Lahiya in northern Gaza carrying white flags, demanding Hamas end its rule, and calling for the Israeli hostages to be released.
Israeli Defense Minister Israel Katz praised the protesters and encouraged others to join in, calling it the “only way to stop the war.”
“Learn from the residents of Beit Lahiiya, as they did, you should also demand the removal of Hamas from Gaza and the immediate release of all Israeli hostages,” Katz said. “This is the only way to stop the war.”
He added that military operations will soon spread in Gaza, which may require more evacuations from combat zones.
“The plans are ready and approved. Hamas is risking your life and will make you lose your homes and more and more land that will be added to the Israeli defense array,” Katz said.
In a video posted by the Center for Peace Communications, protesters are heard chanting, “‘Hamas get out!’ Gaza’s people don’t want wars. They demand the end of Hamas’s rule. They demand peace.”

In the Nuseirat refugee camp in central Gaza, Gazans chanted “Out, out Hamas!”

There is no area in the Gaza Strip today that has not seen anti-Hamas protests. <a href="https://t.co/DrCyiSmkeG" target="_blank" rel="noopener">pic.twitter.com/DrCyiSmkeG</a>

In response, Hamas <a href="https://x.com/HowidyHamza/status/1904572074275774656" target="_blank" rel="noopener">reportedly</a> started to attack the protesters in the street. Hamas-aligned media outlets have either ignored the protests or claimed they were incited by Israel, <a href="https://x.com/KhalilJeries/status/1904925219656974633" target="_blank" rel="noopener">according to</a> Palestinian Christian activist Khalil Sayegh.
The protests marked the first time Gazans had taken to the streets to call for peace since January 2024, though those protests were smaller.
<a href="https://www.dailywire.com/news/israel-eliminates-dozens-of-top-hamas-leaders-following-ceasefire-collapse" target="_blank" rel="noopener">Over the past week</a>, Israel eliminated more than a dozen Hamas leaders, many of whom were key to maintaining Hamas’ control over Gaza’s population, beyond just its militant operations.
In addition to air strikes, IDF troops have begun ground activities in central and southern Gaza to create a buffer zone between the north and south of the strip.
“We eliminated tens of thousands of terrorists and senior murderers,” Netanyahu said while speaking during a debate in the Knesset, which his political opposition is able to call once a month. “As long as Hamas persists in refusing to release our hostages, the pressure we apply will become stronger and stronger. This includes capturing territories and other moves I will not elaborate on here.”
Netanyahu&#8217;s comments build on Katz’s threat to annex part of the Gaza Strip if Hamas continues to refuse to release the 59 hostages held by the terror group.
“I have instructed the IDF to seize additional areas in Gaza, evacuate the population, and expand security zones around Gaza to protect Israeli communities and IDF soldiers,” Katz said, <a href="https://www.jpost.com/breaking-news/article-847025" target="_blank" rel="noopener">according</a> to The Jerusalem Post. “The more Hamas persists in its refusal to release the hostages, the more territory it will lose, which will be annexed to Israel.”
Last month, <a href="https://www.dailywire.com/news/watch-gazan-civilians-support-trumps-relocation-plan-say-their-home-is-uninhabitable" target="_blank" rel="noopener">The Daily Wire</a> published interviews with Gazans who said they were in favor of relocating to more habitable locations outside of the Gaza Strip, in line with President Donald Trump’s proposal.
“It is our right in Gaza to have freedom of movement and travel,” said a 22-year-old law student, her face blurred for safety, during an interview obtained by The Daily Wire. “In light of the suffering by the people of Gaza, the need to travel has become urgent, as it is no longer suitable for living a dignified life as other people live.”
