Eli Elbag, the father of Liri Elbag, presented her photo before the kidnapping and after the kidnapping
The families of the abductees held a press conference this evening (Thursday) in front of the Kriya base in Tel Aviv, during the meeting of the political and security cabinet, and intensified the tone against the government.
The families decided to hold the press conference after Prime Minister Benjamin Netanyahu's statement earlier this evening.
Eli Elbag, the father of Liri Elbag who was kidnapped in Gaza 104 days since the surprise attack by Hamas on October 7, presented her photo before and after the kidnapping.
"Don't get confused, it's the same girl. We're fed up. We heard, we didn't do anything, and so are you the security cabinet. You're going back to October 6. Start the conversation, Mr. Amsalem, start with the slime and the low talk. I have the feeling that you're dragging your feet. Comfortable It's too convenient for you. I'm not ready for that. We hear the quarrels between you in the cabinet well. We're a united people, are you united? I don't think so. Look this girl in the eyes, what are they going through there. We don't even know if they're alive. Every day we hear About another one who was murdered in captivity. We will start doing things we didn't want to do. We won't let you work. We will imprison the entire country.

Daniel Elgert, the brother of Yitzhak Elgert, who was kidnapped in Gaza, said at the press conference that "I appeal to the abductees in the tunnels and in the houses, so that you know - we are here, and even more so today. Something has fallen. Time is up. From now on we depend solely on luck. We have entered Russian roulette and everyone before who sleeps at night checking around to see if he left a light, a door or something because maybe there will be a knock on his door and he won't hear, to inform him of the good news of Job that we all fear. I'm sorry to say that it is also expected in some place, because we see the situation is deteriorating day by day. They promised to rescue us the abductees at the same time as defeating Hamas. It turns out that it is neither this nor that. Hamas is strong, Hanu sets conditions, for every medicine he takes a thousand. We gave the prime minister 100 days of grace. Bibi, your 100 days of grace are over. Now you have to bring results."

According to him, "We are going to act by all means to save people's lives. We are not going to release hostages, we are going to save lives. We will do everything that the Israeli government hesitates or does not have the courage to do. We will block the humanitarian aid with our bodies. I am ready to be run over, the truck will not pass. We will do it. Very extreme actions that will shake the foundations of the country and the world. It is impossible for them to languish and the discussion is about the introduction of drugs, under whose auspices the IDF goes out.
An investigative committee, and whoever is responsible will pay the price.
Hamas is holding us until 2025?!
Blackmailing us?!
The families of the abductees decided to remove the gloves.
From today onwards you will see a different language and behavior.
We expect the public to support us.
Don't be angry if we block or interfere with your routine a little bit."
"Tired of you working on us"
Shir Siegel, daughter of Aviva Siegel who was released from captivity and Keith who remained in Gaza: "We are fed up. We are fed up with you working on us and doing everything. You are not. My father has been in Gaza for 104 days. If you had done everything he would have been here a long time ago. Hellas. We don't have time. We We want to have our parents alive. The responsibility is only yours, not ours. We chose you so that you would make the difficult decisions. Not to collapse organizations that cannot be collapsed. You will enter a conference where you will sit for 80 hours, not sleeping and not eating, until there is a solution. You need to fly to Qatar now And the United States and where we should not sleep until they come back. We received bitter news, the country is falling apart. We stopped being nice, sitting quietly, coming to meetings with you and nodding when they say you do everything. Stop lying to us."

would never come back alive.
I'm tired of living in fear, every day getting up in the morning and being afraid of what message I'll get, if today it's me.
We entered a standstill in the government, in the world, nothing motivates action.
Another murdered, another body.
We have to finish it this week.
They won't last much longer than this.
They say that Hamas is delaying the answer, Qatar is delaying the message, and we are asking to wait.

"We demand to hold an international conference that concerns everyone - Qatar, Egypt, the United States, Europe. They sit in one corridor and do not leave until they find a solution. If the country needs to be turned over - we will turn it over. If we need to mobilize citizens to block humanitarian aid, we will do it. If necessary To stand in front of the truck and get run over and seriously injured, I will do it. Enough of complacency. We should not let a terrorist organization control us," she added
