Hostage survivor Sharon Aloni-Cunio, who was kidnapped with her two young daughters while her husband David remains in captivity, said at a rally in Hostages Square that "Yesterday I marked 12 years since David and I became a couple. We've been together for 12 years, but two of them apart. Emma, Yuli and I were released while David remained there. Since then, we've celebrated birthdays, anniversaries, holidays, first days of kindergarten and a hundred Sabbaths. All separately." According to her, "The hostages remained there even when Israel carried out an assassination operation in Qatar, despite security officials' objections to its timing. I am dying of fear. What is he going through right now? Any delay is a life-threatening danger. I refuse to be a widow due to hesitation or sabotage."
