Absolutely terrible

quantumbutterfly · 08/02/2025 10:54

They were shadows of their former selves unsurprisingly. How many more remain hostages?

EasterIssland · 08/02/2025 10:57

They do look like having lost loads of weight the 3 of them.

marmaladeandpeanutbutter · 08/02/2025 10:58

What do you expect? Israel won't allow food into Gaza and everyone has been starving. The navel gazing is astounding.

Around 30-35 I think

GentleScroller · 08/02/2025 11:00

Ohad Ben Ami, Eli Sharabi and Or Levy.

All three men are clearly malnourished and emaciated. Under duress they are being made to perform on stage for the gratification of Hamas and their supporters in Gaza and throughout the world. The torture and humiliation continues until the last moment of their captivity.

Why aren't the Red Cross being given access to the hostages, they clearly need medical assistance.

Shocking, shocking, shocking!

These are the hostages still believed to be alive? I thought the total number was higher.

Yes.

from abc
More than 70 are still in Gaza, and at least a third of them are believed to have been killed in the initial attack or to have died in captivity. Israel says Hamas has confirmed that eight of the 33 to be released in the first phase of the ceasefire are dead

Where are the babies and their mother? They should have been released 1st !

The fact that they weren't is being taken as a bad sign. I imagine hamas are concerned about the optics considering the performances they're providing for the current releases.

Well the Hamas lot we keep seeing during these hostage releases look healthy enough...

And the conflict has been going on for over a year...so of course food has been going in. There wouldn't be a single person left if there hadn't.

Navel gazing? Really. More like victim blaming. These men look like they've not just been starved but tortured.

Meanwhile the Hamas terrorists don't look like they've been starved of food - so they have been getting supplies.

Omg. Did you just actually suggest it's Israel's fault the hostages are emaciated? Standing next to extremely well nourished terrorists? Fuck me. I'm actually astounded. Shame.

They had told the father/ husband that they were dead. It was thought this was to further torture him.It was not confirmed though. Ugh it's so heartbreaking.

Aid IS allowed in to Gaza and as others have said, the terrorists seem well fed.

Naval gazing, what a joke. You're refusing to accept the reality of a situation, and who is to blame for the conflict. Hamas initiated this, they kidnapped Israeli civilians into Gaza. They have blood on their hands.

marmaladeandpeanutbutter · 08/02/2025 12:00

Aid has been getting into Gaza in extremely small quantities and there has been international outrage about it. That's my last comment to you, since you won't hear.

I heard. Loud and clear. Yours was one of the most disgusting comments I've ever read on here.

But you said...

Israel won't allow food into Gaza

EasternStandard · 08/02/2025 12:07

Poor people. The juxtaposition of Hamas weapon wielding covered in black and green and the hostages is visual image that is jarring

Dandeliontea123 · 08/02/2025 12:08

No, we do hear what you are saying. Please check the timeline of events.

This is nonsensical. Israel hasn't had food shortages. Gaza has. The amount of food going in has been minimal.

I didn't suggest Israel had food shortages.

What's nonsensical about my post?

Not when you compare terrorists with hostages
It proves that Hamas has been keeping the aid for themselves and their supporters.
