The undated 37-second video of Noa Argamani, 26, Yossi Sharabi, 53, and Itai Svirsky, 38, released on Sunday night showed them speaking presumably under duress, pleading with Israel’s government to end the war and get them home.

The clip ended with a Hamas caption that on Monday, “we will inform you of their fate”. Israel has blasted such videos as psychological warfare and insists it will not be deflected from its goals in Gaza, after Hamas launched raids into southern Israel on October 7 that claimed 1,200 lives.

Among the targets was a music festival from which Ms Argamani and her boyfriend were seized. An early clip released by Hamas showed her pleading for her life as she was taken away on the back of a motorbike.

        Only 36 out of the 1139 deaths (not 1200) were children.

        Israeli officials say 1,139 people were killed in the Hamas-led October 7 attacks in southern Israel, among them 695 Israeli civilians including 36 children.

        And a massive amount of them were burnt to a crisp in the Kibbutzes where the IDF also counted 250 Hamas fighters that the IDF initially counted as “israelis burnt beyond recognition”.

        So you think those Hamas fighters spontaneously combusted?

        Furthermore plenty of witness testimonies from israelis that were that say that the IDF tanks shot children in kubbutzes.
