Israeli captive families said in a statement that the plan approved by the cabinet to occupy Gaza meant Israel is choosing territories over the captives, which they said is against the will of over 70 percent of Israelis.
"Now, a war is being waged out of a desire for revenge and occupation, not saving lives. Not according to the will of the people, not according to the Jewish spirit," Anat Angrest, mother of Israeli captive Matan Angrest, told Haaretz in a separate interview.
