Defense Ministry: Born to Freedom unable to uncover new intel

The Defense Ministry said that the decision to cut the Born to Freedom Foundation's funding was made after two professional commissions asserted that it hasn't been able to find any new information on missing and captive IDF soldiers.

The ministry added in a statement that while the group has lost its special funding, it will still be permitted to apply for financial aid the same way other organizations do. (Yoav Zitun)
