Hamas released two more hostages. They turned out to be Israeli women, Yocheved Lifshitz and Nurit Cooper, who were captured in Kibbutz Nir Oz on October 7.
The release was carried aout through the mediation of Egypt and Qatar. The operation passed through the same procedures that were applied during the release of the two American captives.
The representative of the Palestinian group had previously explained that the Americans were released in response to Qatar’s mediation efforts, as well as to “prove to the American people and the whole world” the falsity and groundlessness of the statements of the US authorities about Hamas.
The representative of the Izz al-Din al-Qassam Brigades noted that Israel had refused to take the hostages back since October 20, but the militants “decided to release the captives for compelling humanitarian reasons.” At the same time, Hamas claims that they were not hostages. The women were initially captured by some “other” forces.
Livshits told The Times of Israel that she did not know where she was being held. The woman reported that the militants put her on a motorcycle: one held her from behind and in front so that she would not fall. First, she was brought to the city of Abasan al-Kabir in the southern Gaza Strip, and then taken to another place.
Former Hamas captive Yocheved Lifshitz, 85, described how Hamas militia took her by motorcycle into a “spiderweb” of tunnels under Gaza. She noted that Hamas treated her gently and met all her needs during captivity, including getting her treated by a doctor. Lifshitz also pointed a finger of blame at the Israeli military – claiming the IDF did not take the threat of Hamas ‘seriously.’
According to the latest data provided by the Israeli military, Hamas is holding more than 200 people hostage, but this number may grow. On October 23, the Israeli media reported that Hamas was going to hand over 50 foreign hostages with dual citizenship to the Red Cross.
On October 24, the IDF has scattered leaflets over the Gaza Strip asking Palestinians to provide information about hostages held by Hamas. In return, the Israeli army promised to “provide security” and financial rewards and guaranteed “complete confidentiality.”
they are not foreign hostages. dual citizenship=100% israeli zionist cockroach.
just goes to show everyone, that i was right about hamas being a bunch of pussies. i guess they all are terrified of the relentless bombing campaign that israel has been conducting, and the imminent ground invasion into gaza. i guess hamas is realizing that they f**** up and now are trying to release hostages so that israel can show a little mercy to them and turn their water and electricity back on!
rascally ol’ hasbarat, hamas is a jewish supremacist puppet. kitson’s gangs and counter-gangs in full colonialist bloom in palestine.
the jooish to55ers will attack iran, then drag the ussa into fighting that war on their behalf. thats how these slimey parasites operate. they did it with uss liberty and 911, the likud are animals on a downhill spiral
can’t believe sky news actually aired it. the west would rather the hostages all die and provide more fuel for their fire. the nations leaders say one thing, palestinians bad, israel good…but the people are wising up, they know who the real terrorists are. one look at the demonstrations and there is proof. leaders may be bought, but the people are not.
yes it would be better if they had been raped and beheaded, good for zionist propaganda.
what you are about to see is israel either launching an attack against iran or sinking american vessels in a false flag attack like uss liberty then dragging the americans to fight iran on their behalf. this is where its going. i hope iran, russia and china are prepared. the ziological parasites are serious about armageddon and levelling al aqsa
if that happens america and israel won’t come out in one piece,all us assets in the region will be attacked as well as israel.
what use are to old grannies to hamas? they will die of stress long before they can be traded. then hamas has two old dead grannies to deal with, best to release them now and get some good pr
exactly they aren’t worth anything unlike that general they captured
what is truly sad is that the two peoples share so many common traits. some even dna. the palestinians are in the place the jews were at 2000 years ago and they never gave up. why should the palestinians be any different. the old granny on the left of the photo at the top seems perfectly at ease with the hamas guy holding her hand and both grans suit the palestinian traditional clothes they must have been provided with.
identitarian rubbish. what are “the jews”? let us know when you figure out that little big of flim-flam.
shut up moron. most real jews on earth have been destroyed through history.
the only jews on earth now are 95% european or west asian….. modern day jews are about as jewish as the old farmer in a chinese villge who converts to judaism.
so get educated dip stick.
jews do not belong in the middleeast… they are no from the middle east and they have no physical connection to the middle east.
however the palestinians do
