The Hostages Forum has appealed to Transportation Minister Miri Regev to increase train services into Tel Aviv for a major protest scheduled for Tuesday night, urging support for a ceasefire-hostage deal. The organization highlights that a similar demonstration last Sunday drew half a million participants in Tel Aviv and over a million nationwide. The forum emphasizes the need for expanded train service to prevent congestion and ensure safe access for the large crowds expected to attend. The protest will begin with a march from Savidor Central train station at 7 p.m., culminating in a main rally at Hostages Square at 8 p.m. Ongoing train disruptions following a recent accident have complicated travel, with full service not expected until September.
