The family of freed hostage Elma Avraham has refused a request from Prime Minister Benjamin Netanyahu to meet with him during his expected visit to Soroka Medical Center in Beersheba, according to Hebrew media reports.

Avraham, a 84-year-old resident of Kibbutz Nahal Oz, was returned in critical condition after Hamas failed to supply her with vital daily medications for some 50 days. Soroka has said there is no longer a danger to her life as she continues to recuperate at the hospital.
