(IsraelNN.com) Dozens of members of the unit from which two IDF soldiers were kidnapped by Hizbullah terrorists July 12 are protesting the cease fire agreement in Tel Aviv Monday night.

Despite American and Israeli assurances that a cease fire would be conditioned on the release of Ehud Goldwasser and Eldad Regev, the agreement only calls for their freedom without demanding it. The soldiers rallied in Rabin Square.

Goldwasser's father Shlomo, who was not at the demonstration, said while the cease fire could help win the soldiers' release, he believes that the IDF "must not pull back until the families have something in their hand."
