Hamas’s two youngest hostage, 2 and 5 years of age, and his mother died, the terrorist group announced and said that his body would be returned to Israel later this week.
One of the children, KFIR Bibas was taken captive on October 7, 2023 at the age of 9, never experienced birthday in independence. And another child’s name was Ariel Bibas, New York Post.
Israel expressed serious concern about their situation, not confirming the deaths of Ginger-Bal, and their mother Shiri.
Khalil al Heya, the leader of Gaza’s Hamas, said that the remains of the four hostages would be transferred on Thursday, while six living captives, some were detained for more than ten years, will be released on Saturday.
Six persons prescribed for Saturday’s release represent the original three expecteds, to free the final living hostages in the initial stage of the ceasefire.
The reason for the changed system of Hamas is not clear.
A Israeli official informed the Associated Press that Prime Minister Benjamin Netanyahu had allowed mobile homes and construction equipment in Gaza, which led to the reconstruction of the residents after a 15 -month struggle.
Hamas had earlier threatened to delay the hostage release, cited the ban on supply delivery and other alleged violations of the ceasefire agreement.
Hostage releases have been held in exchange for many Palestinian prisoner Organized by Israel. Between January, the ceasefire stopped the deadliest struggle between Israel and Hamas, enabling disastrous Gaza to aid distribution, and hundreds of thousands of Palestinians facilitated returning home, as Israeli forces retreated from enough areas.
Secondly, interaction for a more complex phase, including a permanent ceasefire in Hamas and issuing additional mortgage in exchange for Israel’s return from Gaza remains pending. The administration of Israel has its objective to eliminate Hamas in Gaza.
However, during the ceasefire, the terrorist group re -established the rapid control despite the loss of leadership and the number of fighter casualties.
Along with revelations of solitary imprisonment and rigorous treatment, the earlier release of three malnourished hostages this month has increased the pressure on Netanyahu’s government to move forward in the next phase of ceasefire.
Families are worried about short time – a fear reinforced by the tragedy of the Bibas family.
