Hamas has claimed that its operatives killed an Israeli hostage and critically injured two female hostages in Gaza. The incidents occurred during separate attacks by guards assigned to watch the prisoners. Hamas seized 251 hostages during the October 7 attack on Israel, with 111 still held, including thirty-nine presumed dead. The Israeli military has yet to confirm or refute the claims but continues to investigate. The ongoing conflict has resulted in over 1,198 Israeli and nearly 40,000 Palestinian deaths.
