Tens of thousands of Israelis, together with the headquarters of the families of the abductees, are holding a huge rally in Jerusalem. Survivors of captivity and relatives came forward to speak, including Agam Goldstein and Iti Regev, who were released in a deal at the beginning of the year.

"They are half a year in another world, 184 days that never end," said Agam. "The State of Israel will only have resurrection and restoration when all the abducted are returned for burial," said mother of abducted Yael Tamder.
