@LittleMsTellTheTruth what an inappropriate thread to do this on...
If your going to get your knickers in a twist you could at least spell Palestinian right.
What a joke.
It's like you have forgotten yourself whilst ranting.

I think roughly just under 200 remain in Gaza. They believe 240 were taken (Hamas never verified), 41 released so far including foreign nationals, 1 rescued and I think 2 murdered hostages bodies found.

XRAYTHIS · 26/11/2023 18:10

May I ask how many hostages are still being held?

Gaza report on twitter is indicating that some factions are resisting releasing the hostages they hold - which might explain why the baby is still held.

Ah I see.

Hila Rotem was released yesterday without her mother. She is reported as saying the following today:

My mother was with me the entire time of captivity. Hamas separated us two days before the liberation. Mother's condition was good. We were together with Emily.

Mind games, what a surprise.

Elma Avraham, 84 years old has been taken straight to hospital in a "serious medical condition". It must have been terribly difficult physically for the elderly.

Putins gonna be pissed if Hamas have mislaid the rest of the Russians

The 14th hostage is being reported as Roni Krivoi, a 25 year old man with dual Israeli/Russian citizenship. He was at the Nova festival.

confirmed by Jerusalem post: Avigail Idan, three years old; the Brodutch family: Hagar (40), Ofri (10), Yuval (8) and Uriah (4); Ella and Dafna Elyakim, eight and 15 years old; the Almog-Goldstein family: Chen (48), Agam (17), Gal (11) and Tal (9); Elma Avraham, 84 years old; Aviva Siegel, 64 years old.
i think the 14th hostage is a dual Israeli Russian citizen hence confusion.

Thanks for sharing.

I see there is a shabat table laid for all the hostages and each time someone is released the settings adjusted.

Someone also said that they cannot fully celebrate whilst other hostages are still being held showing unity for all.

Stomacharmeleon · 26/11/2023 16:49

Avigail must be so confused wondering where her parents are.

Stomacharmeleon · 26/11/2023 16:48

Some good news.

Thanks for that. Selection of ages of hostages then.

I think the Brodetzs are the neighbours that Avigail ran to.

Still no baby Kfir or his brother and mother. ☹ I I suspect Hamas will consider him to be one of the most important hostages and will keep him longer.

Oh I hope it is! I follow Maayan Zin on Twitter ( Dafna and Ella's mother). She hasn't posted anything yet today.

Seen the same list in a few other places I follow.Nothing confirmed in Israeli media yet, they are waiting every day for the hostages to be reunited with family first before releasing the names publicly.

StarbucksSmarterSister · 26/11/2023 16:31

stormy4319trevor · 26/11/2023 15:36

Probably a good idea. I suggest it's made clear it's not a continuation of thread 1 , and is only to discuss hostages held in Gaza. I will set one up regarding the topics we were discussing on thread 1, maybe?

Thanks Stormy.

The thread has got back on track. Can we please keep it that way.

Sure - except that I wanted to call out the implied threat. Am I supposed to just ignore it?

Cashncarry68 · 26/11/2023 16:23

Kaffeebitte · 26/11/2023 16:22

One of them is that little girl who ran to her neighbours covered in her father’s blood.

Oh no 😢. What she must have seen and been through.

Kaffeebitte · 26/11/2023 16:23

I wish nobody would argue on this thread. It’s just a microcosm of what is happening. Please just stop.

Running threads are very tricky.
Suggest Perhaps @ the poster you are critiquing to avoid confusion as I was mistaken by your response…apologies if it offended

and not be rude to posters ie telling me to cool down is offensive.
This is a discussion forum

Sorry - it was a play on words - you said "inflame" which suggests heat so I continued the idea and hoped you had " cooled down".
No offence meant and I sincerely apologise.
