The Israeli army had reached close, and as soon as Hamas got the hint, it killed 6 hostages
The bodies of the 6 Israeli hostages found in the Gaza tunnel were shot dead 48 to 72 hours ago. Israel is claiming that Hamas fighters killed these hostages when they got the news that the Israeli army was approaching the tunnel.
According to the Israeli Health Ministry, the autopsy report of these 6 hostages shows that they were killed 48 to 72 hours ago, i.e. between Thursday and Friday. According to the Health Ministry, the Abu Kabir Forensic Institute has found that all these hostages were shot multiple times from very close range, which shows that they were murdered.
The IDF Chief of Staff visited the tunnel
On Sunday morning, Israeli Army Chief of Staff Lieutenant General Herzi Halevi visited the tunnel from where the bodies of the 6 hostages were recovered. The head of the Southern Command was also present with him. According to Israeli media, security officials suspect that Hamas killed these hostages because it feared that the hostage who was rescued alive by the Israeli army last week would give information about these hostages to the IDF.
Last week, the Israeli army safely recovered 52-year-old Farhan al-Qadi, who was held hostage. He was rescued alive from a tunnel built by Hamas in southern Gaza, while Hamas fighters managed to escape from there.
Shot before soldiers arrived
Israeli army spokesman Rear Admiral Daniel Hagari has said that these hostages have been brutally murdered. According to the initial investigation, Hamas killed these hostages shortly before Israeli soldiers reached there. Hagari said that these 6 people were taken hostage by Hamas fighters on 7 October last year. He said that the bodies of these hostages were found at a distance of about one kilometer from the place where we rescued Farhan al-Hadi a few days ago.
Hamas took him hostage on 7 October
According to the Israeli army, the Hamas people killed the hostages shortly before the soldiers reached the Rafah tunnel. On Saturday, the Israeli army recovered the bodies of these 6 hostages from the tunnel. After which there was a lot of anger against the Netanyahu government in the whole of Israel. Actually, after the attack on October 7, Hamas had taken more than 200 Israeli and foreign citizens hostage. Apart from this, 1200 people died in the Hamas attack, after which the Netanyahu government started a military operation to eliminate Hamas. But despite the war of about 11 months, Israel has not been able to free all the hostages.
Demand to end the war from Netanyahu
Thousands of people angry with the death of the hostages took to the streets of Israel on Sunday and held Prime Minister Netanyahu responsible for the death of these hostages. The people of Israel say that Netanyahu should end the war in Gaza now because the hostages can be released only through a ceasefire deal.
In fact, in the ceasefire that took place in November last year, Hamas had released 105 hostages, before this Hamas had released 4 other hostages under the ceasefire agreement. The Israeli army has rescued 8 hostages alive so far. In the war that has been going on for 11 months, the bodies of 37 hostages have been recovered so far. As the war is escalating, the threat to the lives of the hostages is increasing. This is the reason why the people of Israel want Netanyahu to accept the ceasefire deal with Hamas and the remaining hostages can be released.
