The sister of an IDF soldier whose body is believed held by the Hamas terror group berates Prime Minister Benjamin Netanyahu at a memorial event in Jerusalem, blaming him for not retrieving her brother’s remains.
“You know exactly where he is and you won’t look me in the eye. You’re to blame,” says Ayelet Goldin, the sister of Hadar Goldin. “Look at this grieving sister in the eye.”
She shouts down Netanyahu as he leaves the memorial event marking nine years since the operation in which Goldin was killed.
“What is in the grave for the past nine years? Tzitzit and a bloody uniform,” she says.
“What are your values? You’re abandoning soldiers and civilians,” she says. Netanyahu does not appear to offer a response.
Hamas is believed to hold the remains of two soldiers, and two living Israeli civilians, in Gaza.
