President Isaac Herzog spoke at the inauguration ceremony of the "Ktav V'Shem" memorial for the fallen and murdered of Kibbutz Kfar Aza, saying: "I strengthen the hands of our negotiating team working at this very hour, and all those engaged in the mission of returning our sons – at the forefront and behind the scenes." Herzog added: "I call on them, and especially on the decision-makers: Bring them home. We must press on the pedal with all our might and bring the desired agreement."
