In Tel Aviv, thousands gathered on Saturday night demanding new elections and the resignation

"We have agreed that the government will continue according to the program it has set up.

The 59-year-old prime minister was shot in the abdomen while greeting supporters in the

Elsewhere, Ukrainian troops were fighting to halt the Russian advances in Ukraine's

The recent attacks are trying to stretch Ukrainian resources, according to military analysts.

through the front line.

The Russian Defense Ministry on Friday said that it had destroyed over 100 drones, including

04:30
