Israel’s main group representing families of hostages still being held in Gaza has said that Prime Minister Benjamin Netanyahu was missing an “historic opportunity” to get them released, as US President Donald Trump concludes a visit to the region, AFP reports.
“The hostages’ families woke up this morning with heavy hearts and great concern in light of reports about increased attacks in Gaza and the imminent conclusion of President Trump’s visit to the region,” the Hostages and Missing Families Forum said in a statement.
“Missing this historic opportunity would be a resounding failure that will be remembered in infamy forever,” the group added.
