Israeli Army Chief Herzi Halevi reveals the complexities of returning kidnapped soldiers while families of captives protest against Prime Minister Netanyahu's policies, calling for urgent action to secure a prisoner exchange deal.


The Chief of Staff of the Israeli army, Herzi Halevi, has made a candid statement regarding the ongoing situation of Israeli soldiers kidnapped by Hamas. During a recent press conference, Halevi acknowledged the complexities involved in securing the return of these soldiers, indicating that military operations alone may not suffice to bring them home. He emphasized the army's commitment to exploring all possible means to achieve this goal, yet recognized the challenges posed by time and circumstances.

Families of the captured soldiers have expressed their frustrations towards Prime Minister Benjamin Netanyahu, accusing him of hindering potential negotiations for a prisoner exchange deal. During a press conference held in Tel Aviv, they voiced their concerns that Netanyahu's policies, particularly his insistence on controlling the Philadelphi Corridor, are obstructing efforts to secure the release of their loved ones. Protesters even blocked roads outside Netanyahu's residence in Caesarea, demonstrating their desperation and urging the U.S. administration to intervene.

The emotional toll on the families is palpable, as they fear that the ongoing military operations without a clear path to a prisoner exchange could result in dire consequences for the detainees. With calls for accountability directed at Netanyahu, the families believe that his continued leadership could prolong the conflict and jeopardize the lives of those captured. The situation remains tense as the Israeli government navigates the delicate balance between military strategy and humanitarian concerns.
