Dozens of relatives of the hostages in Gaza are en route to Prime Minister Benjamin Netanyahu’s private home in Caesarea where they plan to camp out overnight and protest what they say is the government’s inaction in securing the release of their loved ones.
“The days of grace in which you dragged your feet are over,” says a statement from the Hostage Families’ Forum.
“Prove your leadership and lead a courageous move that will advance the plan that is known to be on the table. It is not about freeing hostages, it is about saving lives,” the families say to Netanyahu.
