In a heated meeting, families of Israelis held by Hamas confronted Prime Minister Benjamin Netanyahu, accusing him of deception and intensifying calls for his resignation. The emotionally charged gathering witnessed chaos as returned hostages recounted alleged mental and physical abuse. Reuven Yablonka, whose son remains captive, described the scene, saying, "There was chaos and yelling; they shouted that they want all the hostages to come home." Leaked audio featured Netanyahu explaining the challenges of simultaneous releases, stating, "If there was a chance to bring them all in one fell swoop, do you think anyone here would object?" Concerns arose over tactics potentially endangering hostages, with one woman challenging Netanyahu, "You prioritize politics over the hostages." Families expressed frustration, with Dani Miran calling the government's handling a "farce" and adding to the mounting pressure on Netanyahu to step down.
