The bodies of three more hostages were recovered from Gaza

On October 7 last year, Yablonka and Hernandez were taken hostage from a music festival in southern Israel by fighters from the Gaza-based ruling group Hamas. And Nishinbaum is a resident of the Israeli town of Sedrat on the Gaza border. On the day of the Hamas attack, he went to a military base near the border to look for his grandmother. Since then there was no trace of him.

Chanan Yablonka’s sister Avivit Yablonka told AFP after the bodies of the three hostages were recovered from Gaza last week that her family feared bad news.

One of the three hostages whose bodies were recovered earlier was Shani Luke, a dual citizen of Israel and Germany. Hernandez, whose body was recovered yesterday, was said to be her boyfriend.

On October 7, Hamas, the ruling group of Gaza, attacked Israel. Hamas fighters took 252 hostages to Gaza during the attack. Some of their hostages have been released under the terms of the ceasefire agreement. According to Israel, there are still 121 hostages in Gaza. According to information provided by the Israeli military, 37 of these hostages have already died.

More than 11 hundred people were killed in Israel that day by the attack of Hamas. Then Israel started attacking Gaza. At least 35,800 Palestinians have been killed in Gaza indiscriminate attacks by Israeli forces over the past seven months. More than 80 thousand were injured.
