The Israeli occupation faced a night of mounting unrest on Thursday, as three simultaneous demonstrations erupted acrossoccupied territories, leading to major road closures and clashes between protesters and police.

According to Israeli Channel 12, the protests involved traumatized soldiers, ultra-Orthodox citizens, and families of captives, all rallying over separate grievances.

One group of ex-soldiers blocked the southbound lanes of the Ayalon Highway, bringing traffic to a standstill and causing significant disruption in Tel Aviv.

At the same time, ultra-Orthodox demonstrators took to Highway 4 near Bnei Brak, completely blocking the road and halting traffic. Police sources reported that some protesters hurled stones and insults at officers, with some allegedly comparing them to Nazis.

Meanwhile, in occupied al-Quds, demonstrators demanding a prisoner exchange and an end to the war clashed with police outside Prime Minister Benjamin Netanyahu's office. Israeli Channel 7 reported that authorities used tear gas to disperse the crowd following a cabinet meeting.

The widespread protests have highlighted growing tensions within Israeli society as pressure mounts on the government from multiple fronts.
