IDF admits killing 3 Israeli hostages held by Hamas

Israel occupation forces admitted it killed on Friday three Israeli hostages that were held by Hamas in Gaza City.

The Israeli military said troops “mistakenly identified three Israeli hostages as a threat,” and killed them in Shejaiya neighbourhood.

The hostages emerged “tens of meters from one of our forces positions,” an IDF official said.

They were not wearing shirts and were waving a white flag on a stick, and two were killed immediately, the official said.

The third hostage ran away “crying for help in Hebrew.”

Despite the battalion commander issuing a ceasefire order, there was “another burst of fire at” the third hostage, which killed him instantly.

Hundreds of Israelis gathered outside the defence ministry in Tel Aviv, calling on Netanyahu’s government to make a dealt with Hamas and release the remaining 129 hostages held in Gaza.

The Israeli aggression on Gaza killed more than 18,800 Palestinian civilians, along with more than 200 others in the West Bank.

The aggression also killed more than 60 Israeli hostages in the airstrikes.
