Tens of thousands of people took part in the Gay Pride Parade in Tel Aviv today (Friday).

Those present included Culture Minister Miri Regev (Likud), who said, "I have come, along with members of the pride community in the Likud in order to support and embrace all of the youths, women and men who aren't always embraced at home. I am proud of you and embrace you. Be who you are. We need to do more for you because you deserve it just like everyone else."
