The abductee's father accuses: "Netanyahu does not care about the abductees, it is important for him to continue fighting in order to survive" Yehuda Cohen, the father of the 19-year-old soldier Nimrod Cohen who was kidnapped by Hamas 142 days ago, was outraged by his words. "Smotrich's words are simply brash," he claimed in an interview with 103FM.

"The soldiers and civilians were kidnapped because of the government's irresponsible conduct," he said.
