The Israeli military says it has rescued, alive, one of the scores of hostages abducted in Hamas’ Oct. 7 attack, which ignited the ongoing war in Gaza.
The Israeli military said Tuesday that it has rescued one of the scores of people abducted in Hamas' Oct. 7 attack, which ignited the ongoing war in Gaza. The rescue brought a rare moment of joy to Israelis amid months of grinding war but was also another painful reminder of the scores of hostages remaining in captivity despite international efforts to broker a cease-fire agreement in which they would be released.
” Hamas-led militants abducted about 250 people in the Oct. 7 attack, in which about 1,200 people, mostly civilians, were killed. Israel’s retaliatory offensive has killed over 40,000 Palestinians, according to local health officials, who do not say how many were fighters. It has displaced 90% of Gaza’s 2.3 million people from their homes and caused heavy destruction across the besieged territory. Israel believes there are still 108 hostages inside Gaza and that more than 40 of them are dead.
