Defense Minister Benny Gantz referred to the conduct of the Exceptions Committee of the Ministry of Transportation.

"What happened at Ben Gurion Airport requires answers from the public - how was the committee conducted? How many inquiries were denied and why? Therefore, a representative of the Ministry of Justice appeared in the committee today, and we will demand tomorrow in the government that the proposal be approved that will allow all Israelis who want may return home. No less than that."
