Israel neutralizes Hamas commander who held 1,000 Gazans hostage in hospital
The war between Israel and Hamas is not a simple two-sided fight. Hamas also murders its own Gazans and Palestinians, primarily by using them as hostages or human shields. The Israel Defense Forces say it has killed the Hamas commander that was reportedly responsible for taking 1,000 Gazans as human shields and holding them hostage in the Rantisi Hospital.
Part of the hostage situation was the individuals were unable to leave the hospital and head to Southern Gaza where humanitarian aid and humanitarian corridors are primarily.
“IDF aircraft just struck Ahmed Siam, responsible for holding approximately 1,000 Gazan residents and patients hostage at the Rantisi Hospital, and preventing their evacuation southward,” the Israeli military said Saturday on X, formerly Twitter.
“Siam was a commander in Hamas’ Naser Radwan Company, and is another example of Hamas using civilians in Gaza as human shields for terrorist purposes,” the IDF also said.
Just The News reports that Israel began telling people to evacuate north Gaza days after the Oct. 7 Hamas terror attack in Israel that resulted in the deaths of around 1,400 people and the kidnappings of more than 240 others.
However, Hamas, a U.S. State Department-designated foreign terrorist organization, has reportedly been refusing to let people leave the area for the south. Meanwhile, the Hamas-run Health Ministry, which does not distinguish between civilian and terrorist casualties, said the death toll in the strip surpassed 10,000.
Following the release of a Hamas propaganda video with footage of Israeli-American soldier Edan Alexander, 20, alive after over 420 days in captivity, as well as the IDF having confirmed the death of American-Israeli Captain Omer Neutra who was abducted during the October 7th attack, Trump is not mincing words.
United States President-elect Donald Trump declared Monday that there will be “hell to pay” if the hostages held by Hamas and Islamic Jihad terrorists in Gaza are not freed before his inauguration on January 20. The message marked the first time since November’s election that the former chief executive commented on the situation facing captured Israeli citizens in the coastal enclave, reports Foreign Desk News.
Writing on his Truth Social account, the former president warned the captors, “Please let this TRUTH serve to represent that if the hostages are not released prior to January 20, 2025, the date that I proudly assume Office as President of the United States, there will be ALL HELL TO PAY in the Middle East, and for those in charge who perpetrated these atrocities against Humanity. Those responsible will be hit harder than anybody has been hit in the long and storied History of the United States of America. RELEASE THE HOSTAGES NOW!”
During the October 7, 2023, massacre in southern Israel, the invaders kidnapped 251 individuals after killing almost 1,200 civilians and responding security forces.
Following negotiations and rescue operations led by the Israeli military over the past year, authorities in Jerusalem estimate about 60 of the 95 remaining abductees are still alive, adds FDN.
