On Saturday, the families of Israeli captives, who are being held by Hamas militants in Gaza, called for an immediate government explanation regarding the well-being of the hostages. This plea comes in the wake of escalated Israeli military strikes on the Palestinian territory.

Families of Israeli hostages held by Hamas militants in Gaza on Saturday demanded an immediate government explanation about the fate of the captives after the army intensified strikes on the Palestinian territory.

The main group representing more than 220 people believed abducted in the October 7 attacks by Hamas sought an immediate meeting with ministers.
The Hostages and Missing Families Forum said in a statement that relatives were angry over the “absolute uncertainty regarding the fate of the hostages held (in Gaza), who were also subject to the heavy bombings.”
