Protests against Israeli Prime Minister Benjamin Netanyahu and his government members renewed Saturday evening, demanding his departure and reaching an urgent prisoner exchange deal with the Palestinian Resistance, as well as holding early elections.

Talks over a ceasefire in Gaza and possible exchange of prisoners between the Palestinian Resistance and "Israel" resumed in Doha this week, with "Israel's" spy chief David Barnea joining Egyptian, Qatari, and US mediators.

Thousands participated in two large demonstrations, the first of which demanded elections and the overthrow of Netanyahu's government on "Kaplan" Street, where some protesters closed off Route 2 in the area.

The second demonstration, near the Israeli Ministry of Security headquarters in "Tel Aviv", called for a swift deal to release Israeli captives held by the Palestinian Resistance in the besieged Gaza Strip.

Clashes erupted between Israeli police and settlers, where police threatened to impose hefty fines on any protesters attempting to block "Ayalon" Street but to no avail.

In both occupied Qaysariya and Haifa, hundreds of Israeli settlers participated in massive marches calling for a change in government. Some protesters held signs reading, "The Israeli government is against the Israeli people."

Touching on the protests, Israeli opposition leader Yair Lapid told the Israeli Channel 13 that "Israel" has a "terrifying government", emphasizing the necessity of holding early elections.
