It’s nonsense—but deliberately. The terms are vague and meaningless so they can ban ANYTHING if they want to.

🔴 The Bibas family has accused Benjamin Netanyahu of “abandoning” Shiri and her two young sons in a blistering attack on the Israeli prime minister. “There is no forgiveness for abandoning them on October 7, and no forgiveness for abandoning them in captivity.”
