Tensions flared in Tel Aviv as hundreds of protesters gathered at Habima Square on Saturday for an anti-government demonstration amid growing anxiety over a potential Iran-U.S. deal. The emerging agreement has sparked intense political debate within Israel, with concerns over its implications for national security and regional strategy.
Opposition Leader Slams Deal
Opposition Leader Yair Lapid criticized the emerging U.S.-Iran deal on social media, echoing the protesters' sentiments. Lapid argued that the agreement "doesn't achieve any of Israel's war goals — the regime survives, the missile program is intact, and Iran can rebuild the nuclear program."
Growing Political Turmoil
The protest reflects deepening divisions within Israel's political establishment. Many Israelis view the deal as a failure of Prime Minister Netanyahu's policies, with some calling him "Trump's puppet" for allegedly failing to secure Israel's interests.
