The government’s hostage point-man Gal Hirsch reiterates Israel’s anger over the physical condition of three hostages released earlier today and says Jerusalem has raised objections with mediators.
“A message has been sent to the mediators and we will act as appropriate,” Hirsch says in a statement.
Like other senior Israeli officials, he does not specify what actions Israel will take.
Channel 12 reports that officials are considering cutting back aid flowing into Gaza.
