A series of ads on billboards and TV stations demonstrate requests for Israeli Prime Minister Benjamin Netanyahu to resign, driving him into a state of panic.

After he demanded an investigation by the media to find out who's behind the campaign, the organization has stepped forward.

Known as “Lochamei Kippur”, the organization consists of soldiers who took part in the 1973 "Yom Kippur War," who said that its funding comes from the public.

In a statement on X, the organization said: “Bibi [Netanyahu], you are the head, you are guilty,” adding: “You asked where the campaign funding comes from? Here’s a scoop — from public donations.”

ביבי, אתה הראש - אתה אשם!
שאלת מאיפה המימון של הקמפיין? קבל סקופ: מתרומות הציבור.
מלמעלה מ-70% מהציבור שדורשים שתתפטר.

תרמו עכשיו לקמפיין ‘אתה הראש אתה אשם’ ודרשו את החלפת נתניהו:https://t.co/P6oasLHAHD

It also claimed that over 70% of the public is “demanding you resign,” as it called for more donations to support it.

Just yesterday, thousands of Israeli settlers took to the streets in both "Tel Aviv" and occupied al-Quds demanding that Netanyahu reach a prisoner swap agreement with the Hamas Resistance movement and hold snap parliamentary elections at once.

The Israeli protests, which have been taking place since the start of the war on Gaza, are calling for an early election as Netanyahu's unpopularity skyrockets due to his neglect of the Israeli settlers taken captive by the Palestinian Resistance in Gaza during October 7's Operation Al-Aqsa Flood.

Haaretz claimed that pressuring Netanyahu to resign is futile and unproductive, adding that Netanyahu believes that there is no chance of his resignation.

The newspaper added that for Netanyahu, his resignation would mean an end to his life, therefore, he should be ousted.

The Israeli political scene has seen intense tensions since Netanyahu retook power in December 2022, as his far-right coalition government took steps to overhaul the occupation's judicial system and attempted to alter the military's conscription law. These steps have led to mass settler protests in occupied Palestine and further highlighted the stark contradictions within the Israeli settler community. For tens of weeks, Israeli demonstrators called for a stop to the government's plans, while Operation Al-Aqsa Flood on October 7 revealed the fragility and incompetence of the Israeli occupation forces and the security command.

It is worth noting that Netanyahu has refused to stand accountable for his role in the major security failure, as tensions grow between the Israeli military and political command.
