Prime Minister Benjamin Netanyahu in a statement to the nation Wednesday night referred to the return of four of the fallen hostages set for Thursday, saying: "Tomorrow will be a very difficult day for the State of Israel. A shocking day, a day of sorrow. We are bringing home four of our beloved hostages, fallen hostages." He added: "We embrace the families, and the heart of an entire nation is torn. And the heart of the entire world needs to be torn, because here we see who we are dealing with, what monsters. We are hurting, but we are also determined to ensure that something like this will never happen again."
