The Hostages Families Forum expressed 'astonishment' after new details in the Prime Minister's Office's leak investigation implied that said leaks could have prevented a hostage deal. The declassified details refer to the leak of a 'Top Secret' and sensitive document, whose exposure could harm both the achievement of one of the war's objectives (hostage release) and the operational activities of the IDF and Shin Bet in the Gaza Strip against Hamas and in additional contexts. The newly declassified information also revealed that Feldstein and another suspect would be indicted for allegedly leaking top-secret documents to convince Israel that the hostage protests were strengthening Hamas.
