Hostages held by Hamas in Gaza rescued by Israeli forces
8 murdered by Hamas while in captivity.
EmojiThe bodies of 6 hostages were recovered from a tunnel under Rafah, Gaza: Hersh Goldberg, 23; Eden Yerushalmi, 24; Carmel Gat, 39 [Hostages released in Nov '23 reported Carmel was held with some children and did yoga with them daily to keep their spirits up]; Almog Sarusi, 26; Alex Lubnov, 32; Ori Danino, 25.
Hamas released video taken shortly before executions of all 6 on the day of their funerals. Another attempt by the terrorists at manipulating the pain and grief of Israelis.
EmojiQaid Farhan Alkadi, 52, a father of 11, was rescued from an underground tunnel in a "complex mission" by Israeli commandos. He was held for 326 days! He revealed that a fellow hostage, Aryeh Zalmanovich, died next to him after being held in Hamas captivity for two months. Zalmanovich, 86, died of medical neglect in captivity.  The IDF also recovered the body of an Israeli soldier who was killed on October 7 and taken into Gaza by Hamas. 
Taking hostages and mudering hostages are war crimes. The Red Crescent/Red Cross/any international aid group has never visited a single hostage.

While Egypt, an Arab country, shares a border with Gaza, instead of welcoming those in need, it has built a third wall to prevent any Palestinian crossings. Here are the different categories that Egypt has approved for the entry of Palestinians through the Gaza border @HenMazzig

IRAQ

ISRAEL

EmojiIsrael launched a counterterrrorism operation in the West Bank, one of the seven fronts that Iran is currently using to attack the Jewish state. The Palestinian Authority has lost control of most areas. Around 150 shooting and explosive attacks had originated from the West Bank in the past year. The Iranian-backed Palestinian Islamic Jihad terrorist group has taken up residence in Jeni n and Tulkarem where they were engaged in heavy gun battles with Israeli troops. The IDF has also exposed and dismantled many landmines planted beneath roads in civilian areas.  
EmojiTo deliver vaccines to Gazans, Israel has paused fighting. Has there been a “humanitarian pause” in the rocket barrages from Hamas in Gaza? The media raced to report a polio 'outbreak' in Gaza, but the facts are that only one singular case has been confirmed. With 1.6M vaccine doses on the way, aid organizations like WHO and UNICEF are calling for a minimum 7-day ceasefire to vaccinate 640,000 children under the age of 10. However, earlier this year, WHO reported a 90% vaccination rate in Gaza, surpassing the 80% needed.
EmojiImshin on X reposted a TikTok from World of Stickers in Gaza City, showing them marketing car decals to disguise cars as UN vehicles. But whether these stickers are intended for protection for civilians or deception for terrorists is cause for concern. Note: four gunmen and not aid workers were killed this week trying to hijack an aid convoy.
