Police arrested dozens in protests calling for Prime Minister Benjamin Netanyahu to agree to a hostage release deal after clashing with officers in Jerusalem and Tel Aviv where fires were lit outside the headquarters of Netanyahu's Likud party and roads were blocked. The Hostages and Missing Families Forum accused Netanyahu of lies and spins, and said he chose to sacrifice the hostages after he said Israel would not withdraw from the Philadelphi Corridor along Gaza's border with Egypt
