Israeli official says Hamas doesn’t want to release remaining women because it doesn’t want them speaking publicly about what they endured on Oct. 7 and in their time in captivity
The temporary truce between Israel and Hamas broke down this week after the Palestinian terror group that rules Gaza refused to release 10 more female hostages, and instead sought to free abductees taken on October 7 from other categories, in violation of the agreement, Israeli officials said Friday.
The terms of the deal, brokered by Qatar, specified that Hamas would first release all women and children being held in Gaza and Israel would agree to a pause in fighting for up to 10 days, the Walla news site reported Friday, citing three Israeli officials.
Ahead of the eighth day of the truce, Hamas failed to propose a list of hostages set for release that would be acceptable to Israel in the final hours, as stipulated in the deal, and instead sent a message through Qatari and Egyptian mediators that it was prepared to release male hostages. Hamas had also proposed to release bodies of hostages it said were killed during captivity.
“Israel says…”
So it’s completely untrustworthy.
I guess the rockets in the air and the hostages not produced are all just holograms and magician disappearing acts?
Ever notice that during any of these “hostage” exchanges, Israel always has a ready supply of Palestinian “prisoners” to exchange in return? Funny how it’s only one side taking “hostages”.
Not surprising at all considering how both Hamas and PA are heavily focused on indoctrinating citizens to hate Jews and commit terror acts.
I think killing Palestinian children, robbing families of their homes, rounding up and detaining adolescents is doing a pretty good job of that already.
Hamas has done a great job with their propaganda by grouping anyone under 19 as children. That includes all 16-18 year olds with guns.
You forgot the 14 year old that was detained by Israel as well.
Hopefully the apartheid state will be broken soon.
Enough of them were trying to stab random civilians, including pregnant mothers for me to pretend that every 14 year old in custody is innocent.
It’s almost like one side is arresting specific people with handcuffs and eventually pressing actual charges instead of sending in a giant group of people to abduct as many people as possible.

We call that an apartheid state. Framing laws to specifically target an ethnic group so you can expell and eradicate them. In the US we called them Jim Crow laws.
And?
In the US when you kill random people it’s murder and when you take random people who aren’t breaking any laws and child them captive, then it’s kidnapping.
In the US when you kill random people it’s murder
Unless you’re a police officer.
What are you on about?
One side has snatched up thousands from Israel, Gaza, West Bank and held them without trial.
- You can’t read. 2. Still not even close to the same thing.
Oh well you tell that to the innocent people being abducted.
Again, arrested not abducted. They are going to an actual prison with actual charges applied eventually. Whether or not those charges are warranted is up for debate.
I’m saying taking one side of a conflict’s statements at face value, especially Israel’s, is incredibly naive or willfully ignorant.
So you say it is wrong taking sides and then blatantly take sides - lol?
Saying Israel is biased and untrustworthy isn’t taking a side unless you think Israel can’t be criticized. In which case, I don’t care what you have to say.
This is a total non story.
Hamas complained a bunch of times that their soldiers in Northern Gaza were constantly being fired at, and they were having to respond to.. Israel was already in breach of the truce but Hamas kept it up in the effort to have as many of its innocent civilians imprisoned illegally without trial.
Genuinely innocent women in children prisons are being tortured, beaten to death or maimed, are psychologically tortured and had no hope of being released. This whole war is the closest Gaza has gotten in many years to have those innocent civilians released, and Israel is actually arresting as many people as it’s “freeing”, and in some cases is arresting the very same people it let go, months or years after.
As of yet, not a single piece of credible information has been released from Israel to suggest it is targeting Hamas fighters. Hundreds upon hundreds of homes, schools, medical facilities have been destroyed with survivors saying there were no Hamas members nearby. They’ve begun bombing hospitals again as soon as the truce ended, and are saying they want this war to go on for a year. They say they’re using precision targeting to minimise civilian casualties, but all we see from those who are dying are innocent civilians. It’s genuinely pathetic.
If they were able to brutally murder more innocent civilians in one month than Russia has killed in the entirety of its war with Ukraine, then 11 more months is nothing short of annihilation.
This has to be the most barbaric, most inhumane nation on Earth currently, as not only does it have very clear genocidal intentions and outwardly speaks about it, it has the weapons and military capability to do what it wants with the blessings of the US and Western allies.
Man, so many lies in a single post it’s impossible to decouple them.
because it doesn’t want them speaking publicly about what they endured on Oct. 7
Which is why they released women for the other 7 days. Love how this article contradicts itself in the first sentence.
More likely Hamas wasn’t satisfied or no longer needed a reason to continue the truce, so they kept the hostages for another time. Which makes sense considering the original truce started at 3 days, and Hamas probably extended it as much as they saw fit for easier rearmament.
Not to mention Israel has been double dipping pretty heavily anyway, so no point in giving up hostage leverage for no gain. They’ll probably try to negotiate a new deal later down the line.
God I hate news reporting on military related conflicts because it almost always completely ignores how factions function. IDF nor Hamas are incompetent in warfare. They both have goals and know what they are trying to accomplish. Both groups barely care about the hostages beyond their use as leverage.

Here’s the entire sentence:
Israeli official says Hamas doesn’t want to release remaining women because it doesn’t want them speaking publicly about what they endured on Oct. 7 and in their time in captivity
which clearly implies that Hamas was fine releasing female hostages that were treated okay, but is refusing to release the remaining female hostages that have possibly been abused, raped, sexually mistreated.
You obviously don’t have to agree with that analysis, but where exactly do you see the contradiction?
They released 80year old women and kids. You must know this and are just trying to avoid admitting that Hamas are rapists

Literally the frontpage news, what are you living under a rock?
They even provided pictures and descriptions of everyone in case you somehow failed to notice.
That user has a habit of posting disinformation. Is there any way to report them for it?
Did Israel release or capture more Palestinians during the ceasefire?
Idk did Palestinians magically stop committing terror acts during the ceasefire?

Yes, they did release Palestinians during the ceasefire. Halt arresting Palestinians during the timeperiod was not a ceasefire stipulation, so not sure why it’s brought up.
Its brought up so hostages and prisoners can be conflated by duped altlefts as being just as bad
Maybe it’s because the majority of Palestinians are arrested for no reason?
Do you have a non-biased source to corroborate that? HRW is very much biased against Israel.
non-biased source
That’s not a thing, bestie
Lol.
Is someone sad they were called alt-right and tried to apply that label to the left?
The left is so diverse that we hate every other leftist, there is no alt because we cannot agree on a default.
