Tens of thousands of Israelis gathered outside the parliament building in Jerusalem on Sunday in the largest anti-government demonstration since the country went to war in October. They urged the government to reach a cease-fire deal to free dozens of hostages held by the Hamas militant group in Gaza and to hold early elections.
Israeli society was broadly united immediately after Oct. 7, when Hamas killed some 1,200 people during a cross-border attack and took 250 others hostage. Nearly six months of conflict have renewed divisions over the leadership of Prime Minister Benjamin Netanyahu, though the country remains largely in favor of the war.
Netanyahu has vowed to destroy Hamas and bring all the hostages home, yet those goals have been elusive. While Hamas has suffered heavy losses, it remains intact.
Apparently Hamas transports them via ambulance, so depending on their exact reasons for doing that, the possibilities are all over the damn place
Savvy way to make ambulances in Gaza less of a target for Isreal, which will hopefully keep some injured Palestinians alive as well.
Don’t be fooled, Israel has killed a few of their own hostages, and, as the article stated, the “brig the hostages home” line is more of a cover for the ongoing genocide than an actual worry of Israel. They’ve had multiple chances to save hostages, and have repeatedly bombed places intel told them hostages are being held. Israel does not give a shit about the hostages. It’s emotional leverage to continue eradicating Palestinian people, razing their land, settling there themselves, and punishing everyone in Gaza.
The country that has repeatedly fired upon people receiving aid, shot their own hostages, slaughtered people waving white flags, carpet bombed “safe zones,” told civilians to leave an area only to shoot/bomb them as they ran, deliberately starved the people of Gaza, and shot in the foot multiple chances to get their own hostages back, believe it or not, does not give a shit about saving people. It’s all for corrupt ends.
This channel did a great video on the subject
would probably make them more of a target tbh
Yeah Bibi’s basically all but come right out and said that the Israeli military is now killing the hostages themselves to prevent them continuing to be used as negotiation chips.
They’re to be executed for the crime of the Israeli public seeing them as a reason to negotiate with Hamas instead of exterminate them without prejudice.
Well that explains why the IDF keeps murdering people in ambulances!
No they are just psychopaths.
