Defense Minister Yoav Gallant will meet tomorrow with representatives of the families of those held hostage in Gaza amid concerns for their well-being amid the intensifying operation.

The announcement comes after relatives of the 229 confirmed hostages held in the Gaza Strip issued an urgent appeal for a meeting with Prime Minister Benjamin Netanyahu, Gallant and other members of the war cabinet amid fears for the safety of their loved ones as the military conducted a massive strike on Hamas tunnels and bunkers in the northern part of the enclave and ground forces went in.
