The Israeli occupation forces revealed that their attacks in March could have killed the Israeli captives who were retrieved from an alleged tunnel in Gaza today, Israeli Channel 12 reported. 

Estimations show that five out of the six captives were killed by Israeli fire during the ground invasion of Khan Younis six months ago, according to Israeli media. 

In the same context, the Wall Street Journal cited Israeli security officials as saying that it is generally believed that "more hostages will return killed," if a ceasefire deal that could save them is not reached. 

The newspaper claimed that most security officials in the occupation "insist that reaching an agreement is the only way to secure the release of the remaining 105 captives," who were taken on October 7.

WSJ quoted a former Israeli intelligence official as saying that "most of the hostages will not return to Israel unless an agreement is reached."

Resignation or death

This comes as pressure mounts on Israeli Prime Minister Benjamin Netanyahu, who has been accused of sabotaging the ceasefire and prisoner exchange agreement to remain in power, to return the captives before more die due to the IOF's carpet bombing of Gaza. 

Protests continue erupting in Tel Aviv against Netanyahu’s policies, with demonstrators demanding a prisoner exchange deal with the Palestinian Resistance. Some protesters threatened that if Netanyahu did not resign, they would ensure his death.

Families of Israeli captives being held in the Gaza Strip demonstrated on Saturday evening, urging the government to finalize a prisoner swap. They criticized Netanyahu's conditions, claiming they are obstructing the agreement.

In a statement read outside the Security Ministry in Tel Aviv, the families stressed that "Israel" faces a critical crossroads: Either a deal or escalation.
