The headquarters for the return of the hostages stated that "the families of the hostages are shocked and angry that the issue of returning their loved ones has 'disappeared' from the government's agenda." The headquarters questioned, "Have the hostages been forgotten by the Israeli government?" and added that "this is a blatant and painful disregard for an urgent and important issue that cannot wait even a moment longer. How is it possible that while the Prime Minister speaks about the possibility of a breakthrough and progress in negotiations, the government itself is not dealing with the issue? Or was it again just empty talk? We again call on the Prime Minister and government members - announce the dispatch of a negotiating delegation to Doha."
