Sara Netanyahu complained that hostages freed from Hamas captivity during a truce in late November did not thank her and Prime Minister Benjamin Netanyahu, Channel 12 news reports.
“Did you see how many hostages came back? They didn’t even say thanks to us,” the network quotes the premier’s wife as saying to an unidentified opposition lawmaker.
Netanyahu’s office adamantly denies his wife made the comments, saying the report “contains lies and far-fetched fabrications.”
Liam Or, who was released in November after being taken hostage in the October 7 terror onslaught, takes a swipe at Sara Netanyahu over the report.
“Sorry I was kidnapped,” he writes on his Instagram account.
