"The Seder night is approaching and this year we will have to leave an empty chair," said Ofir Angrest, whose brother Matan was kidnapped on October 7, during the weekly gathering of hostage families in Tel Aviv with hundreds of onlookers.
The families of hostages held in the Gaza Strip appealed on Saturday for Jewish Israelis to leave an empty chair at their traditional Seder meals marking the beginning of Passover on Monday.
"The Seder night is approaching and this year we will have to leave an empty chair," said Ofir Angrest, whose brother Matan was kidnapped on October 7, during the weekly gathering of hostage families in Tel Aviv with hundreds of onlookers.
Declaring that he was addressing the Israeli cabinet, he said: "Enough! After more than six months, you're simply disrespecting me and the families of the hostages."
