Israeli captives killed... by 'Israel'

This comes after the Israeli occupation military said that 32 Israelis held captives by the Palestinian Resistance factions in the Gaza Strip were killed.

Sources told the American newspaper The New York Times that Israeli authorities are currently verifying information indicating the killing of another 20 captives, in addition to the 32 whose deaths the occupation army confirmed.

It is noteworthy that several Palestinian Resistance factions confirmed that a number of Israeli captives held in Gaza were killed while in their custody due to the aerial and artillery bombardment carried out by the Israeli occupation forces.

For months, the families of the Israeli captives have been staging protests in "Tel Aviv" demanding that the Israeli government end the war and negotiate a prisoner exchange deal, criticizing the policies of the Israeli occupation Prime Minister Benjamin Netanyahu, who has insisted on his promise to "destroy Hamas".
