Ronan Tzur announced that he has decided to retire from his position as head of the abductees' headquarters. In the background of the decision, claims were heard from a number of families that even if it was against his will, he is harmful to the struggle.

"I do not intend to allow any political party to directly or implicitly threaten the families of the abductedees," he said. " 134 abductees are dying in the tunnels in Gaza without food, water, oxygen, medicine, and hope. Their immediate release is the only thing that needs to be talked about," he added.
