The Hostage Families Forum filed a request Saturday evening to join the request to lift the publication ban on the security case, which reportedly also touches on the question of the feasibility of an agreement for the return of the hostages.
In the request submitted to the court, it is written: “The interest of the Committee, as an organization bringing together numerous families of hostages, takes precedence over any general public interest in lifting the publication ban, to the extent where there is something in the publication that could be relevant to this sensitive issue. This is therefore an overriding interest that must be weighed against all other considerations. Our only request is to be heard and support any request for disclosure. documents likely to shed light on the negotiations for the release of the hostages or opposition to their release, as well as any facts that could be relevant, even indirectly.”
“We are witnessing media manipulation, some of which ignores the fate of these hostages and often sabotages attempts to bring them back. Therefore, if there is even an ounce of information in the banned material that could to inform negotiations for the release of our family members, or alternatively, on the reasons for the delay in their release, families have the right to receive this information in its entirety and not to depend solely on the media for human lives. depend on it, the lives of the hostages as well as those of their families whose course of life stopped on 07.10.23 and whose all efforts have since been directed towards the release of their loved ones”, it is also written.
The Families Committee says: “As the hourglass nears its end, as we hear of hostages who have lost their lives, and as we assume that there are others whose days are numbered, every This element of information is of crucial importance to families, not only information regarding the possibility of release of their loved ones, but also, unfortunately, any information that could compromise this,” the Forum also said.
Last Thursday, information fromi24NEWS revealed that a spokesperson who held sensitive positions within the Prime Minister’s Office was suspected of having committed information security offenses in the course of his duties. The individual was employed in a sensitive position despite failing prior security clearance tests – which should have barred him from any access to the office. In principle, this employee should never have had access to office contents or been exposed to classified documents in the course of his duties.
