The families of Israeli captives protested in front of Israeli Prime Minister Benjamin Netanyahu's house in Caesarea chanting "Freedom now", as reported by the Israeli website Walla!.

Israeli Channel 12 also reported that Israeli settler families of the captives are demanding Netanyahu's resignation, emphasizing that he failed in managing the war on Gaza and returning the captives, adding that he should not remain in his position as there is no freedom as long as the captives are not returned. 

Israeli media further reported that these families will spend Easter night near Netanyahu's house. 

Netanyahu appears indifferent to captives' fate, undermined deal effort

Families of captives held in Gaza held their weekly rally in the Tel Aviv settlement on the evening of April 13, along with protests across "Israel" against the government, days after negotiators explosively reported that Prime Minister Benjamin Netanyahu appeared unconcerned about those held captive.

According to Channel 13, around 45,000 people demonstrated in Tel Aviv last Saturday, with organizers claiming 100,000 were there. 

The demonstrations came after two members of "Israel's" negotiation team told Channel 12 in a broadcast aired on April 11 that Netanyahu looks unconcerned about the plight of Israeli captives and has hampered efforts to strike an agreement to guarantee their release.

The anonymous negotiators, recognized only by the letters "A" and "D", wished to expose the fact that "Israel" was not doing everything it could to free the captives.

"A", who spoke with a modified voice to conceal his identity, highlighted a culture of "cold indifference" to the captives' condition from "the top", notably the Prime Minister's Office, and said that Netanyahu was unable to consider fresh ideas during strategy discussions.

"I can't say that without Netanyahu there would have been a deal, but I can say that without Netanyahu, the chances of making a deal would be better," according to "D".

“It happens again and again, we get a mandate during the day, and then the prime minister makes phone calls at night. He says, ‘Don’t say this, don’t approve that."

"A" also stated that the Israeli team has been compelled to make unreasonable requests, such as the March request for a list of surviving captives, which they know Hamas will not accede to.

They also stated that the political leadership seemed removed from the predicament of captives, noting that negotiators would frequently share photographs and anecdotes about the captives to help lawmakers be more empathetic.
