The Israeli government has not prioritised the safe return of captives amid its ongoing war on Palestinians in Gaza, a new investigation by Israeli news outlet Ynet has revealed.
The government and the military are fully aware that army attacks pose a grave risk to the captives and have, in fact, already led to fatalities.
“The manoeuvre kills captives, not theoretically, it actually kills them,” a security source told Ynet.

Israel was reportedly not involved in the discussions, but informed about the deal afterward. Israeli airstrikes have intensified throughout the day. “I think we'll have to detox from US security assistance,” Israeli Prime Minister Benjamin Netanyahu concluded today.

The anticipated release of a US-Israeli captive by Hamas would not lead to a ceasefire in the Gaza Strip or the release of Palestinian prisoners, Israeli Prime Minister Benjamin Netanyahu declared on Monday.
Negotiations for a broader deal to secure the release of all Israeli captives in Gaza would proceed, Netanyahu stated, but would do so “under fire, during preparations for an intensification of the fighting.”
