ISRAELI Prime Minister Benjamin Netanyahu has said that he will not be “preached” to after he faced demands by his own citizens to reach a ceasefire deal.

Thousands of Israelis protested and went on a general strike on Sunday and Monday following the discovery of six dead hostages.

Late on Monday, thousands gathered outside Mr Netanyahu’s private home in central Jerusalem, chanting: “Deal, now!” and carrying coffins draped in the Israeli flag.
