SG Talk

We've now got the full statement from Israeli government spokesperson David Mencer, who as we reported earlier, says eight of the 26 hostages still to be released by Hamas in phase one of the ceasefire deal are dead.

Mencer says: "I can confirm that Israel has received, from the Hamas terrorist organisation, a list that includes the status of all of the 33 hostages due to be released in this first stage.

"The list from Hamas matches Israel's intelligence. So I can share with you that 25 of our hostages are alive and eight have been killed by Hamas."

As a reminder, Mencer refers to 33 hostages in his statement, but seven have already been released alive since the ceasefire began.

So, Hamas info is reliable.

Hamas has more motivation to keep them alive then dead. All the hostages released look very healthy, happy & smiling. None of them needed hospital treatment. And none of them were raped - including Namaa Levy who last year Israel said was raped after pics of her abduction showed blood on her pants (which netizens said was actually due to handcuffs injury)

More likely Israel bunker busters killed them.

Israel has more motivation for them to be dead so that the world cannot see how well Hamas treated them.
