Killing The Hostages

he wife of Israeli captive held in Gaza Chaim Peri said the investigation released by the army earlier on the deaths of her husband and five other in February in Gaza proves that the Israeli military pressure is killing the captives.

The Israeli military probe determined that the six captives were likely executed by their captors amid an Israeli airstrike on a Hamas tunnel near where they were being held. The military said in its probe that it hadn’t been aware at the time that the captives were near the tunnel targeted in the strike.

Speaking to Channel 12, Osnat Peri said “military pressure doesn’t help bring hostages home — what’s worse, it kills the hostages.”
