The father of freed captive Nimrod Cohen says that the food rations for Israelis held in Gaza ran low when Netanyahu’s government blocked humanitarian aid into the Strip, according to the Haaretz newspaper.
Yehuda Cohen made the comments a day after his son’s release.
He said Nimrod Cohen’s “manner of speech is the same manner of speech, his mood is his mood” since his return.
But he said, for him, the war “has not ended on the national level”.
“We have to make sure that those responsible for the incident, primarily the [Israeli] prime minister, step aside.”
Israel’s total blockade of Gaza triggered a famine in the territory with hundreds, including children, dying of hunger.
