Itzik Gelernter, Shani Louk and Amit Buskila were killed by Hamas while fleeing the Nova music festival, an outdoor dance party near the Gaza border.

The Israeli military said its troops in Gaza found the bodies of three Israeli hostages killed by Hamas during its October 7 attack, including German-Israeli Shani Louk.

Israeli Prime Minister Benjamin Netanyahu called the deaths “heartbreaking,” saying, “We will return all of our hostages, both the living and the dead.” “Tanks and planes are wiping out residential districts and markets, shops, restaurants, everything. It is all happening before the one-eyed world,” Ayman Rajab, a resident of western Jabalia, said via a chat app.Israel had said its forces had cleared Jabalia months earlier in the Gaza war, triggered by the Hamas-led October 7 attacks, but said last week it was returning to prevent the Islamist group re-grouping there.

As the fighting raged, the US military said trucks had started moving aid ashore from a temporary pier built off the coast, the first to reach the besieged enclave by sea in weeks. “Even now, the soldiers are exchanging fire with terrorist cells in the area,” the IDF said. “The 7th Brigade’s fire control centre directed dozens of airstrikes, eliminated terrorists and destroyed terrorist infrastructure.”
