The October Council, an organization representing hostages, bereaved families, and survivors of the October 7th massacre, has criticized a demand by the Likud party for news channels not to broadcast a Saturday night rally live. The council stated that Prime Minister Benjamin Netanyahu is "again trying to silence the bereaved families." They questioned whether the stories of the 2,200 victims, including named individuals like Roni Eshel, Noral and Roya Mensturi, Ido Edri, Neta Baram, and Uri Danino, are merely "election propaganda." The organization asserted that the Prime Minister does not want Israelis to hear the accounts of survivors, the murdered, the fallen, or residents of the Gaza envelope and northern Israel. Furthermore, they claimed Netanyahu fears Israelis hearing a message of hope for the establishment of a state commission of inquiry, an action he has allegedly avoided until now.
