Breaking news:Israeli protesters demand Gaza ceasefire and Iran holds state funeral as truce holds: See more

What we’re covering
• Israeli hostage rallies: Anti-war demonstrators and the families of Israeli hostages are protesting in Tel Aviv to demand a ceasefire in Gaza following the truce between Israel and Iran, urging Prime Minister Benjamin Netanyahu to seize a “historic window of opportunity” to bring remaining hostages home.

• Trump’s Middle East diplomacy: Many of the rallygoers are making direct appeals to US President Donald Trump to intervene in the conflict. Trump helped broker the Israel-Iran truce and his administration has quietly aimed to revive nuclear talks with Tehran, though he has also exchanged sharp words with top Iranian officials, casting doubt on the diplomatic path forward.

• Funerals in Iran: Hundreds of thousands of mourners gathered in Tehran earlier Saturday for the state funerals of top military officials, nuclear scientists, and women and children killed by Israeli attacks during this month’s 12-day conflict.

Tens of thousands of anti-war protesters packed Hostages Square in Tel Aviv on Saturday to call for an end to the Gaza war and a return of the remaining hostages.

“It’s big, it’s vibrant, it’s noisy,” CNN’s Nic Robertson, who is at the scene, said of the atmosphere.

The Hostages and Missing Families Forum estimated that 30,000 people came out.

Many held signs showing pictures of the hostages that said, “Bring them home now,” a frequent refrain during the weekly protests. Others held signs that appealed to US President Donald Trump to step in and demand an end to the war.

One sign said, “President Trump, end the crisis in Gaza! Nobel is waiting!”
