Hostages Square (Hebrew: כיכר החטופים, romanized: Kikar HaChatofim) is a public plaza located in front of the Tel Aviv Museum of Art. Since the 7 October 2023 Hamas-led attack on Israel, families of the hostages taken during the attack have encamped in the square, due to its proximity to the Israel Defense Forces headquarters. In addition, it has been the site of rallies and protests during the Gaza war calling for the release of the hostages.
