Representatives of the Forum of Families of the Captured and Missing met with Prime Minister Binyamin Netanyahu this evening (Sunday). The families encouraged the government to not stop until the war was won.
At the tearful meeting, the families thanked Netanyahu for the meeting and called on him to be determined in war, eliminate Hamas terrorists wherever they are, rescue the captives, completely clear the Gaza Strip of weapons, and ensure complete Israeli control of the whole of the Gaza Strip.
Yesterday (Shabbat), Director of Captives and Missing Brig.-Gen. Gal Hirsch announced that a designated team of some 200 reserve officers has been formed to establish a personal and direct relationship with the families of the missing. A family accompaniment team, led by Maj.-Gen. (res.) Meir Caliphi appointed by Hirsch and Brig.-Gen. (res.) Avner Paz Tzuk on behalf of the IDF, numbers 200 reserve officers recruited for this important purpose.
