Protesters have taken to the streets in Tel Aviv since Israel's military recovered the bodies of six hostages shot dead by Hamas.

Israelis are not only angry at the Islamist militant group that carried out the October 7 attacks on southern Israel. Many have lost confidence that Prime Minister Benjamin Netanyahu is interested in getting the remaining 101 hostages home.

DW's Tania Krämer reports from Tel Aviv, where protesters say the hostages' chances of survival look increasingly bleak.
