I don't really understand their position. Surely the option that leads to least Palestinian deaths would be something they want? It's honestly just weird.
Some of you Palestinians may die, but it's a sacrifice Hamas is willing to make
If it makes no difference either way then they should free the hostages simply because it's the right thing to do...
It really shouldn't be hard or controversial to support the innocent people on both sides of this horrible war. Free the damn hostages and stop the bombings.
I mean, its not like they weren’t bombing the shit out of gaza in the first place, killing hundreds every day. I’d be surprised if Israel could bomb gaza any harder than they already are.
"Israel" is committed to destroying Gaza and getting revenge by killing as many people as possible. Hamas doesn't want that, and Hamas has the hostages. So simply: want to destroy Gaza? Your hostages will go down with it.
Israel is committed to destroying the army of Hamas, and to prevent it from ruling Gaza. It is not committed to destroying Gaza.
Hamas could end the war any minute. Pressuring Israel to let Hamas survive instead of pressuring Hamas to surrender and return the hostages is being pro-Hamas, not pro Palestinian.
Hamas, the group which controls the Gaza Strip, has ruled out any more hostage releases until Israel agrees to a "full cessation of aggression".
Fighting continues in Gaza, with Israel bombarding the north and south of the territory and Hamas firing rockets at Tel Aviv.
Among the Palestinians reported killed were the director of the police station in the southern city of Khan Younis and a daughter of the head of the Gaza health ministry.
The week-long truce this month brought an increased flow of aid into Gaza, where the UN has warned that the population is at risk of famine if the war between Israel and Hamas continues.
In a statement, Hamas said: "There is a Palestinian national decision that there should be no talk about prisoners or exchange deals except after a full cessation of aggression."
Early on Friday, the territory's Hamas-run health ministry put the overall death toll there since 7 October at 20,057, including at least 8,000 children and 6,200 women.
The original article contains 467 words, the summary contains 165 words. Saved 65%. I'm a bot and I'm open source!
Israel can't defeat Hamas without catching them in a lethal, collaterally damaging strike on Qatar. The Holocaust of Gaza will continue until morale improves.
Sadly israel directly kidnapped many of the Palestinian hostages again after releasing them.
The IDF kidnapped almost as many hostages as they released during the truce. Now more. And they torture their hostages whereas Hamas doesn't. And israel violated the truce at the start of it by shooting civilians returning north.
It's sad that the IDF are such an untrustworthy terrorist organization.
If only every single hostage released by Hamas didn't prove my point am I right?
And every single hostage released by IDF terrorists says they were tortured, including women and children being starved, beaten to broken bones, threatened with rape, tear gassed in their cells for three days straight and being denied any medical care causing many to die am I right? (and that's just a few examples of IDF terrorist crimes)
You're disgusting. Just to clear the rest up, there are 1200 who are in "administrative detention", which is where they pick up a random Palestinian off the street and put them in prison. And in people who are charged, they're charged by a military court with a 95% conviction rate where the most common charge is throwing stones.
