Families of captives call on Netanyahu to hold press conference at Hostages Square
A group representing families with loved ones held hostage in Gaza calls on Prime Minister Benjamin Netanyahu to move his scheduled press conference this evening to Tel Aviv’s Hostages Square.
“That way you won’t miss the scream of the families,” spokesman Haim Rubinstein of the Hostages and Missing Families Forum writes on X. “The families invite you. It’s important to us.”
