Tel Aviv: Hamas failed to honor its agreement obligations to release civilians first in the recent ceasefire-hostages deal. Says Israeli Military
Concern Over Hostages
IDF spokesperson Daniel Hagari stated, “Hamas didn’t fulfill its obligation to return civilians first.” He highlighted concerns over the Bibas family and Arbel Yehud. Yehud, a 29-year-old woman, was taken from Kibbutz Nir Oz, while Kfir Bibas, the youngest hostage, remains a priority.
Four Soldiers Released
On Saturday, Hamas freed four female soldiers. They have reunited with their families after necessary health checks.
Appreciation for Mediators
Hagari thanked international mediators for their efforts and urged them to ensure Hamas complies with agreement obligations.
Continued Focus on Hostages
The Israeli military pledged to keep working until all hostages are home safely. Israeli troops remain deployed to protect citizens.
