Rom Breslavsky, a hostage survivor, has sharply criticized the "Komo" movement's national memorial ceremony, alleging that his requests to speak and commemorate his security team colleagues murdered at the Nova music festival were repeatedly denied. Breslavsky described the event, scheduled for Wednesday in Yarkon Park, as political.

His remarks came in response to former footballer Gil Vermouth, who shared a list of media outlets broadcasting the ceremony. Vermouth questioned why Channel 14 was the only outlet not broadcasting, implying it was due to the channel's political stance. Breslavsky responded, stating the reason was that Channel 14 was not invited and that the ceremony itself was political.

Breslavsky further elaborated on the perceived political nature of the event, emphasizing that he was "politically" refused multiple times to speak and honor his friends from the security detail who were killed at the Nova site. He accused the organizers of exploiting his experience for political gain.
