Histadrut Chairman Arnon Bar-David visited the hostage families headquarters in Tel Aviv and said, "I came here today to tell you and the hostages held in tunnels in Gaza that I am with you, that the people are with you. We have spoken in recent weeks. I want you to know - this is not a right or left issue, this is about bringing them home, which is the central obligation of the state." Bar-David called on the government "to resolve this issue" and addressed the families: "We are here with you, we will not abandon you, we will give you what you need."
