Plea For Loved Ones
Don't Discuss Gaza's Future Without Us: Families of Hostages Appeal to Macron
Representatives from the Hostages and Missing Families Forum travel to Paris to meet President Macron, demanding hostages' release be prioritized in Gaza's future discussions.
In a desperate bid to bring their loved ones home, representatives from the Hostages and Missing Families Forum have traveled to Paris to meet with French President Emmanuel Macron. The high-stakes meeting, slated to occur within the next few days, aims to shift the international conversation about Gaza's future toward the immediate release of the remaining 48 hostages held by Hamas.
The families' representatives argue that any post-war plan for Gaza is meaningless without first securing the safe return of the captives. In a powerful statement, the forum underscored the urgency of the situation, saying,
"We cannot remain silent while Gaza's future is discussed without addressing our loved ones who are languishing in hell, the living who are dying, and the deceased who may disappear in Gaza's soil."
The group is calling on European leaders to demonstrate "humanity and compassion" and to make a clear public declaration demanding the return of all hostages. The message to Macron and other world leaders is blunt: "They have no more time."
