Gaza hostages

“Unlike the former chief of staff, we had to petition the High Court of Justice to receive any organized information about our loved ones who were killed on October 7,” they said. 

Many drew comparisons between the plight of the hostages and the Holocaust and called on the government to avoid putting the captive Israelis in further danger.

According to Saar, Hamas holds the most powerful card in its hands - the hostages.

"When we, Holocaust survivors, saw the images of Rom Brezlavski and Evyatar David - emaciated, frightened, barely clinging to life - we felt as if the air had been pulled from our lungs."

When asked by a reporter if he saw the video of David being forced to dig his own grave in a tunnel, Trump responded, “Yeah, I have.”

Ministers, who include those from France, Canada, and the UK, released new public statements last weekend condemning Hamas and called for the immediate release of the remaining hostages.

The protest comes as a response to the government's decision to expand the operations in the Gaza Strip and Netanyahu's order to “occupy the strip.”

"They gave Hamas free gifts. Let me be clear: These countries prolonged the war," he said.

“Hamas is starving the Israeli hostages,” text alongside the video said. “Ignored by the media, too busy echoing Hamas propaganda.”

The British Defense Ministry hasn’t disclosed which aircraft are currently being used to help find the hostages, after the Shadow R1 used in other operations was sent to Britain.
