Ofir, the brother of kidnapped soldier Matan Angrest, addressed the additional footage of his abduction that the family allowed to be published. He explained to ynet studio that "the Prime Minister said he doesn't know about his condition. That's what led to the decision to release the video – so they won't say 'I didn't know, I didn't hear.'" Additionally, he responded to Minister Miri Regev's statement at ynet and Yedioth Ahronoth's 'State Women's Conference' that "elections are a danger to the hostages," saying: "For a year and eight months she hasn't managed to bring my brother home, she shouldn't preach about what will or won't bring the hostages back."
