The Israel Defense Forces (IDF) are intensifying their anti-terrorist operations in the Al Shifa hospital in Gaza, where they claim to have eliminated nearly 200 jihadists. The Army also confirmed the death of dozens of terrorists in the Al Amal area, as well as the confiscation of weapons and explosive devices during raids. Israeli aircraft have been targeting tunnels and underground device launchers throughout the enclave.
The conflict in Gaza, which began after Hamas terrorist attacks, is nearing its six-month mark. According to Hamas, more than 32,500 people have died, mostly women and children, with over 80% of the population displaced and facing severe shortages of food and water.
In a bid to secure the release of 130 hostages still held captive in Gaza, relatives of IDF soldiers kidnapped by Hamas will meet with Israeli Prime Minister Benjamin Netanyahu this Thursday. The families are urging the government to take action to bring their loved ones home.
Orna Neutra, whose son Omer Neutra was kidnapped on October 7, emphasized the need for Netanyahu to prioritize the return of the hostages. Similarly, Anat Angrest, mother of hostage Matan Angrest, expressed the anguish felt by families of the kidnapped soldiers, calling on the government to prioritize their safe return.
The families of the hostages have been suffering for six months, unsure of the fate of their loved ones and desperate for their release. They are demanding that the government prioritize the return of the kidnapped soldiers and not overlook their plight.
