Multiple organizations and institutions participated in a 'Civil Stop' initiative for one hour, under the message that 'we cannot continue without the hostages, and we cannot continue without democracy.' Thousands of citizens took part in the stoppage, including medical teams from hospitals across the country, local authorities, major employment centers and educational institutions. As part of the initiative, protesters took to the streets at various locations including Karkur Junction, Glilot Junction, North Raanana Junction and Assuta Hospital in Ashdod.
