About 150 officers from the Israeli navy and dozens of doctors sent two letters to Prime Minister Benjamin Netanyahu and Defense Minister Yisrael Katz to demand an end to the war on Gaza.
The officers said in their message, which they also addressed to members of the Knesset and the leadership of the Israeli Defense Army: “We, the concerned citizens who served and are still combat officers and operational in the navy, were brought up on the values of the Israeli Defense Army and the state, and we have devoted years of our lives to defend the homeland, we feel a great desire to hear our voice at this difficult time. It retracts more and more from its commitment to return them.

For their part, the doctors sent their message to Katz, Chief of Staff, Lieutenant General Eyal Zamir, and the chief medical official, Brigadier Zivan Bar, in which they said: “We doctors in reserves in the various Israeli Defense Army units are demanding the return of the kidnappers without delaying and ending the fighting in the Gaza Strip.”

“On the seventh of October, we stood proudly to defend the State of Israel. After more than 550 days of fighting that burdened the state, we feel deep pain because the continuation of the fighting aims mainly to serve political and personal interests without any security goal.”
This move comes in light of the escalation of popular anger due to the failure of negotiations and increasing accusations of Netanyahu of prolonging the war to avoid accountability for the failures of October 7, while the weekly demonstrations continue to demand an agreement that liberates the prisoners.

The protest reflects a deep division within the Israeli military establishment, and raises questions about the government’s ability to continue the war amid escalating internal pressure, especially with the approaching anniversary of Easter, which will increase the intensity of mass feelings.
