In addition to the Memorial ceremony, members of the General Staff Forum participated in a panel called, “Memory, Responsibility, Bravery, and Hope.” The panel also included CPT. Bar Zonshine, who commanded and fought battles in communities near the Gaza strip. Two former captors, Chen and Agam Goldstein-Alleg, were also part of the panel.
“On this day, we face the failure of October 7th and look forward to the future. Commitment, together with those who were injured, and will not be silent and will not be silent until we bring back the last of the hostages who fell; this Zamir said.”
“Because of our commitment, we have made inquiries in the wars and sent them to the communities. We continue to study, analyze, and apply the lessons learned. The IDF will not repeat. “It is the duty of the IDF to emerge from the last two years of growth, renewal and hope.”

Matan Angrest, one of the 20 hostages who returned from Israel on Monday, was kidnapped on Oct. 7, 2023, while protecting Nahali oz.
Some evidence from the captors shows that Angrest was mistreated while in captivity, including starvation and torture. The Jerusalem Post reported that Angrest was suffering from asthma, which was associated with the humid and humid tunnels.

In April 2025, while the angrest was still in Gaza, former leader Ron Krivoi – who was released from exile in November 2023 – spoke to Israel’s channel 12 and said that the explosion was carried out by Hamas, according to Israeli times.
“The interrogation he faced happened while it was in Israeli territory – that’s when it started. They started connecting him to a car battery on the road and tried him,” Krivoi said, according to the Israeli Times. “They couldn’t question him. He probably wasn’t even in a state to speak because he was badly injured. His injuries were very severe.”

On Monday, all the remaining groups returned to Israel. So far, Hamas has only handed over the remains of nine of the 28 hostages the terrorist group needs to be given firepower. The two remaining dead silencers in Gaza are US citizens, Omer Neutra and Ithay Chen. Chen was killed while fighting alongside the angrest.
