Zvika Mor, the father of hostage Eitan Mor, addressed the decision to increase humanitarian aid to the Gaza Strip, saying in an interview with ynet studio: "I am shocked each time anew to discover the weakness, how we try to court Hamas and appease the world." According to him, "The week began with gifts to Hamas after they blew up the negotiations, and not for the first time. It's unacceptable that we give Hamas a gift. Now after the gifts that were dropped to them, why would Hamas want to return our hostages to us?"
