Noam Peri:
I don't have an exact answer for this.
I know it's complicated. I know Hamas doesn't necessarily want to release these hostages and keeps them as bargain for his own needs. And I am aware of it. Everything needs to happen together to allow his release. And yet I say again, it's just — it can't continue like this. I don't know how many days my father can survive in his age, in his health conditions.
I heard just a couple of hours ago President Biden and others saying, it's not going to happen soon.
And I can't accept it. I can't accept it. So if the sides are not willing to compromise yet, so we need to pressure them harder to make this agreement and to release my father and others, because we don't have this time to wait. Any day — any day can be his last day now.
We're so thankful for President Biden and the U.S. government for being so deeply involved and committed. But we genuinely ask to do even more and to pressure and to make my father come back even before Christmas. We don't have any time. We don't have any time left.
