"The families are not the enemy": thousands are on their way to Jerusalem in a march to free the kidnapped. Among the thousands marching are also the POW survivors Luis Herr, Fernando Merman, Clara Merman and Gabriela Leimberg, who joined the march today.

Opposition leader Yair Lapid was also present at the march. "The state cannot live with the idea that they will not return," Lapid told the families of the abductees, "there is no other option, if we have to shout we will shout"
