The family of Gadi Haggai and Judy Weinstein, whose bodies were recovered from the Gaza Strip, stated: "We welcome the closure and their return for proper burial at home. We want to thank the IDF forces and security forces who carried out the complex rescue operation and have been fighting for us for over a year and a half, to everyone who supported, struggled, prayed and fought for us and for all the people of Israel. However, our hearts will not be complete until all 12 hostages from Nir Oz and all 56 hostages are returned."
