| Hostages 'must be returned home', Israel's defence minister |
| 2024-09-02 |
| [GEOTV] Israeli Defence Minister Yoav Gallant urged Prime Minister Benjamin Netanyahu on Sunday to conclude a ceasefire deal with Hamas to bring the remaining hostages home from Gaza, as the bodies of six of those taken on October 7 were brought home. "It's too late for the abductees who were murdered in cold blood. The abductees who remain in the captivity of Hamas must be returned home," he said on the social media platform X. "The political-security cabinet must convene immediately and reverse the decision made on Thursday," he said. Gallant has clashed repeatedly with Netanyahu over the need to reach a deal to halt the fighting in Gaza and bring the remaining hostages back in exchange for Palestinian prisoners held by Israel. |
