Hostage Families Demand Netanyahu Stop Claiming 'We Brought Everyone Back'
Summarized from i24NEWS English by baba
Families of hostages killed in captivity have written an open letter to Prime Minister Benjamin Netanyahu and the Likud party, demanding they stop using the phrase "We brought everyone back" in their election campaign. They argue the slogan falsely represents those who did not survive captivity and attempts to turn their deaths into a political success. The families have launched a public campaign to counter this narrative and ensure the truth about the hostages' fates is remembered.
