Hostage Survivor's Wife Details Struggle for State Support

Lishi Miran, wife of hostage survivor Omri Miran, revealed on Sunday the ongoing struggle her family faces with the state following her husband's release. She stated that despite Omri's return, the family's ordeal is far from over, as they have not received a clear, long-term support plan.

Miran explained that families of freed hostages are dealing with a lack of structured assistance. She claimed the state is not providing necessary aid and has not established a long-term framework to address the new reality faced by survivors like Omri.

"Until today, there is no long-term plan for us, the state is not helping," Lishi said, emphasizing that the difficulties extend beyond the absence of a comprehensive plan to the bureaucratic processes involved.

She recounted that Omri was forced to file seemingly illogical claims with the National Insurance Institute, such as for "physical rehabilitation," to illustrate the gap between the unique challenges faced by former hostages and the existing state systems.

Lishi stressed that the return from captivity did not end the family's fight. As long as the state does not provide consistent, tailored support for Omri and other survivors, their struggle continues.
