The family of soldier Hadar Goldin, whose body is held by Hamas, along with the body of soldier Oron Shaul and as many as three living Israelis, made a special statement on Monday, in light of an American-Egyptian agreement being formulated to provide humanitarian aid to Gaza.

Speaking outside their home in Kfar Saba, attended by hundreds of activists from the Order of Hadar, youth movement members and youth and pre-army preparatory students, relatives said, "This time, the people of Israel is saying: there is no humanitarian solution without the return of our sons first - humanitarian steps in exchange for humanitarian steps."
