The hostage held in Gaza was killed by her guard. Two female hostages were seriously injured in another incident, a spokesman for the terrorists said on Monday evening. A commission of inquiry has been set up.
More hostages dead?
The admission fueled speculation that several of the Hamas hostages were no longer alive. The terrorists kidnapped more than 200 hostages during their advance into Israeli territory on October 7. Israel then began a military operation to end the reign of terror in the Gaza Strip. Around 40,000 people have died so far. Although many of them include top Hamas officials, the terrorist organization has not been destroyed.
Austrians among the missing
According to Israeli estimates, Hamas is still holding 115 hostages in the Gaza Strip, many of whom are said to already be dead. The Austrian-Israeli family man Tal Shoham is still among the hostages.
