People attend a rally demanding the immediate release of all hostages held by Hamas and calling for an end of the war in the Gaza Strip, at a plaza known as the hostages square in Tel Aviv, Israel, Saturday, Aug. 30, 2025. The bodies of Israeli hostages were recovered as Israel's military announced Friday that it had launched the "initial stages" of a planned offensive to seize Gaza City, declaring the Palestinian territory's biggest population center a "dangerous combat zone."
