Hostage survivor Or Levi, who was released during the previous deal from Hamas captivity after 491 days, spoke at a rally in Hostages Square in Tel Aviv and said, "I've been here for half a year now. Free, getting up in the morning, going wherever I want, eating when I'm hungry, using the bathroom without asking permission. But my brothers and sister are still there - tied up, hungry, afraid and waiting." According to him, "Every time talks stop, when a deal falls apart, the hostages are the ones who pay the price. We felt it every time. Each time it became harder."
