Elgarat's relatives place the blame on Prime Minister Benjamin Netanyahu and the Israeli government.
You are laid to rest in a grave dug by the Prime Minister, says his brother Danny Elgarat according to Israeli media.
We did not manage to save you and our friends. We did not manage to save you from the evil government, says sister Rachel Danzig.
The 69-year-old father of two is buried on Monday in the kibbutz Nir Oz, from where he was kidnapped during the Hamas terror attack on Israel on October 7, 2023.
Elgarat is said to have been alive at least until November 2023, when a hundred hostages were released from captivity in Gaza in connection with a week-long ceasefire.
