A spokesperson for the families of the hostages says they have had no communication from members of the war cabinet following the accidental killing of three hostages by the IDF yesterday.

“Despite the heavy disaster, no one from the war cabinet has spoken to the families, no one has explained how to prevent the next disaster, no one,” says Haim Rubinstein, a spokesperson for the families.

“Why do the families have to plead for something that should be obvious?” he asks.
