Thousands gathered to mourn the deaths of Ariel, Kfir, and Shiri Bibas, who were killed while held hostage in Gaza. An autopsy revealed they were murdered by their captors, contradicting Hamas's claims of death by airstrikes. The funeral took place in Tzohar, where many mourners expressed national sorrow while some criticized the government for revealing graphic details. Amidst this tragedy, reports suggested a potential re-establishment of a ceasefire deal between Israel and Hamas, allowing the exchange of hostages and bodies, reflecting the complexities of a conflict deeply rooted in grief and negotiation.
The Bibas family have denounced Benjamin Netanyahu and members of his government for making public graphic details of the two boys' deaths. This is outright abuse of a family that has already been enduring hell for 16 months.
Through the car window, I see a broken country; we won't recover until the last hostage returns home.
The national outpouring of grief for Ariel, Kfir and Shiri Bibas came amid reports that a deal had been reached to resume the ceasefire agreement between Israel and Hamas.
An Israeli autopsy report ruled the children had been murdered by their captors and then mutilated to simulate wounds from bombing.
