Hamas had told the world they’d been killed in an Israeli airstrike in November 2023. It was thought Hamas were lying as psychological torture propaganda, but I suppose they weren’t lying after all about them dying. It’s absolutely tragic when children are killed.

My family's hearts are with Yarden and his family. I hope they'll be home soon, safe to rest in their homeland again.

I posted this recently on the "Hostages" thread. (From The Telegraph, but also featuring on other outlets I understand)

Online news is advising that "Hamas will be releasing the bodies of two small children and their mother".

Those bleak words, dashing the hope so many of has had for a different outcome.

I started a new thread because not everyone reads all the threads. I avoid quite a few on CITME section.

The poor family, heartbreaking news hearing this.

Murderous monsters

My mistake. They say they will release bodies of mother and children on Thursday but don't confirm identify of them.

"It is clearest indication that the Bibas children – who were just nine months and four years old, respectively, when they were kidnapped in October 2023 – are indeed dead."
