October 7 victims delivered a statement at Hostages Square in Tel Aviv following reports that Prime Minister Benjamin Netanyahu was warned before the massacre. Gil Dickman, cousin of Carmel Gat who was murdered in captivity, said that 'the price of abandonment is 2,000 graves. This is a price Israel should not have had to pay and it is the citizens' duty to ensure we never pay it again.' Sheli Meshel Yogev, mother of Libi Cohen from Guri who was murdered at the Nova festival, said: 'I don't fall asleep at night because longing for Libi overwhelms me. But these last nights I don't fall asleep because of the news that the prime minister knew and ignored it.'
