Phyllis Bennis, a fellow at the Institute for Policy Studies and adviser to Jewish Voice for Peace, characterised the mass protests in Israel and upcoming strike action as significant. She noted that this is the largest protest movement since the latest assaults on Gaza began on October 7, with around 500,000 participants. Bennis highlighted the planned strikes in crucial sectors like health, tech, and manufacturing, including the shutdown of the international airport.
