The Hostages and Missing Families Forum has issued a statement, urging “the media, Knesset members and public opinion leaders to refrain from making statements that could harm negotiations”, Al Jazeera reports.
“We are following with vigilance, anticipation, and concern the various media publications regarding the agreement for the return of our loved ones,” the statement added.
The forum reiterated its demand for “a comprehensive agreement ensuring the return of all captives, down to the last one — the living for rehabilitation and the dead for a proper burial in their own country”.
