The Hostages’ Tent at the corner of Jerusalem’s Aza Road and Balfour, close to the Prime Minister’s Residence, was dismantled earlier tonight, almost two years after it was set up in the aftermath of the October 7, 2023, Hamas invasion and massacre.

The tent was dismantled following a farewell event.

Two deceased hostages, Ran Gvili and Sudthisak Rinthalak, have yet to be returned from Gaza, but the Hostages and Missing Families Forum has begun the process of greatly narrowing its activities, saying that they don’t serve the current situation any longer.
