Forces had no direct confrontation with Hamas terrorists who killed hostages; ‘The IDF and security forces are doing everything possible to bring all hostages home as quickly as possible. This news shakes us all,’ says army spokesperson Hagari
Israeli forces discovered the bodies of six hostages in a 65-foot-deep tunnel in Rafah, approximately a kilometer from where hostage Farhan Alkadi was recently freed. The IDF had no precise intelligence on the hostages’ location in recent months but knew there were captives in the sector, leading to a gradual and cautious operation in Rafah since the ground offensive began.
If you were Hamas, would you situate yourself in a building out in the middle of nowhere (where is that in Gaza?) With a sign on it saying Hamas lives here, please don’t bomb.?
Has Gaza made any effort to reject international terrorism and work towards a future with justice and basic human rights for its own people? No.
Every time they choose terrorism. They would rather be fed by the charity of gullible westerners than by their own hands, those are occupied with killing Jews. Don’t invest in food infrastructure, spend all the Qatari money on rockets! Solid leadership from Hamas, popularly elected before Hamas (popularly) cancelled all future elections. Suggest otherwise and they’ll (popularly) kill you! That’s your freedom fighters.
That’s why it was blockaded. It was occupied because of October 7. It is still occupied because of Hamas and it’s ideological supporters and allies. Maybe we could have a few Gazan’s step forward and point out the tunnels, point out the Hamas members, if they aren’t happy with where Hamas has led Gaza and don’t want martial law.
