A gathering between Israeli politicians and the members of the family of hostages held by Hamas descended into shouting on Monday.
Hen Avigdori, whose spouse and daughter have been amongst these kidnapped, pleaded with Knesset members to “cease speaking about killing Arabs and begin speaking about saving Jews”, which prompted an outburst from right-wing politician Almog Cohen.
Israeli lawmakers have been considering the dying penalty for 7 October attackers, however some relations of these taken hostage say discuss of punishment might have repercussions for his or her family members.
