Ireland is not the only EU country to attract ire from Israel’s diplomats in recent days. Israel has also summoned the ambassadors of Spain and Belgium for a rebuke over remarks made by the two country’s prime ministers.

Both countries, along with Ireland and Luxembourg, have been calling on Israel to conduct its defence within humanitarian laws since the beginning of October.

Spain’s Pedro Sánchez said he stood by comments “it was a question of being humane” when conducting their offensive in Gaza.

Visiting the Rafah border crossing between Gaza and Egypt on Friday with Belgian prime minister Alexander De Croo, Sánchez said the “indiscriminate killings of innocent civilians” in the Palestinian territory was “completely unacceptable”.

Both leaders called for a permanent ceasefire in the war-battered territory, with the Belgian premier also denouncing the destruction in the Gaza Strip as “unacceptable”.

The Israeli foreign ministry swiftly summoned the ambassadors of Spain and Belgium for a “harsh rebuke” accusing them of supporting “terrorism”.

Spain and Belgium are NATO members, committed to supporting all members in in a written agreement.
I can see Israel wanting to have conversation, as I do, with NATO members.

You're either in or out, no straddling of the fence in NATO.

Ireland, is not. MOO it did embarrass itself, by stating the child was lost and angered some, myself included.

Netanyahu enters Gaza, tells troops: ‘We will continue until victory. Nothing will stop us’

Prime Minister Benjamin Netanyahu visited troops in the northern Gaza Strip today amid the ongoing truce with Hamas, for the first time since the start of the war.

“We are making every effort to return our hostages, and eventually we will return them all,” says Netanyahu in a video released by his office.

“We have three goals for this war: eliminating Hamas, returning all our hostages, and ensuring that Gaza does not become a threat to the State of Israel again,” he says. “We will continue until the end, until victory. Nothing will stop us, and we are convinced that we have the power, the strength, the will and the determination to achieve all the war’s goals, and we will.”

According to the Prime Minister’s Office, Netanyahu visited one of the Hamas tunnels uncovered by Israeli troops.

Minister Uriel Bosso in an interview with Rafi Rashef: "I met 72-year-old Adina Moshe who was released from captivity by Hamas. She told me that she argued with the terrorist at the time of her release and asked him to release another woman in her place - older and in less good condition."




I stand with Adina Moshe !

Love the strength she shows.

I could almost hear her inside voice.... " ....Filthy Animal "

MOO and Peace
 
It's been 50 days since October 7.
50 days of mourning for those who were taken from us.
50 days of worrying about whether our family and friends are alive.
50 days of exposing undeniable evidence of Hamas' crimes against humanity.
50 days of fighting to ensure that October 7 will never happen again.

The October 7 Massacre was an act of systematic extermination. And Hamas has made its ultimate goal clear: the murder of every single Jew. If it could repeat what happened behind these cursed gates, it would do it in a heartbeat.

White House says Red Cross will soon visit hostages still being held in Gaza

[...]

Asked on NBC’s “Meet the Press” whether the Red Cross has been able to see the hostages and about the condition of the 10 hostages with either US citizenship or a US Green Card, Sullivan responds that he doesn’t currently know the conditions of all the hostages.

However, “as part of the agreement… by the end of the fourth day, that is by the end of tomorrow, we expect to have that information,” he reveals.

“It is part of the agreement that that be done by the Red Cross and we expect that to be fulfilled,” Sullivan adds, indicating that Red Cross staffers will visit the hostages and relay their conditions.

The Red Cross has repeatedly refused to confirm that it has been notified of this clause of the truce but insists that it will visit the hostages if both parties agree that it should. Hamas has yet to publicly confirm having agreed to such visits.

BREAKING​

Hamas confirms hostages handed over to the Red Cross​

Hamas confirm they have handed over 13 Israeli hostages, three Thai nationals and one Russian to the Red Cross.

Israeli media reports that the Russian is a dual Israeli citizen, which may explain the discrepancy in numbers: the IDF has said 14 Israelis have been transferred.

IDF says 14 Israeli hostages and three foreign nationals transferred to ICRC

The Israeli army says that, based on information it has received from the Red Cross, 14 Israeli hostages and three foreign hostages have been transferred to the Red Cross.

 
Does hamas have female fighters?haven’t seen any.

Maybe they get a 'hall (hell) pass' if the rape is with a corpse?... imo. rbbm

''He also said they were given permission to rape the corpse of a girl.''

2021 rbbm
''It was one of the scariest moments of Manar Al-Sharif's life: the day Hamas operatives came to take her to prison.

Six men and three women barged into the apartment she shared with her cat in Gaza, confiscated her phone and laptop, forcefully searched and blindfolded her, and led her to a vehicle that would take her to an all-women prison.

Once at the prison, she was bound to solitary confinement — a cell with no windows or light; she spent weeks here unable to leave, even without the chance to shower or get clean.

Her crime: helping create a virtual event for Gazans to Zoom with Israelis.

"I would ask if I can call someone, like a lawyer or family, but they wouldn't let me," Al-Sharif said.

"After two weeks, they sent me to a room with other girls from the jail. Some of them were there for like killing someone or stealing something or these kinds of crimes, but most of them were in the jail because they had sex with men."

''Around the same time, Al-Sharif had her first experience with Hamas. She was sitting in her apartment with friends — both men and women — when building security called the police because she says Hamas forbids intermingling of the sexes. When police arrived, she said one of the officers bit her on the face, near her eye. They took her to jail, where she was beaten for two days straight before she was finally released. ''

''Warning: The following report includes graphic descriptions of sexual violence.
TEL AVIV — The first indications of possible sexual violence came as early as Oct. 7, the day that thousands of Hamas and other fighters streamed into Israeli towns and began live-streaming bloodshed and torture.
Footage showed several women stripped of their clothing. One video showed a woman, her hands zip-tied behind her back, with blood on the crotch of her pants.

Later came testimony from witnesses and first responders. One witness described in graphic detail a gang rape at the Nova rave site near Re’im. An Israeli reserve combat paramedic told The Post that he found the bodies of teenage girls with signs of sexual assault.
Combatants from Gaza overran 22 Israeli communities, killed at least 1,200 and took 240 hostage in the surprise attack. But their greater goal, sexual trauma specialists say, was to introduce terror against women — and children and other unarmed civilians — as a means of spreading fear.''

''Hamas denies that its fighters use rape or assault against women as a weapon of war. To do so, Hamas official Basem Naim said, would go against its founding Islamic principles. The group, he said, considers “any sexual relationship or activity outside of marriage to be completely haram” — forbidden by Islam.''

“There was humiliation through rape on the morning of Oct. 7,” Israeli Police Chief Kobi Shabtai said.
“There was worse evidence that we were not able to show,” he said. “They cut limbs and genitals, they raped, they abused corpses. There were sadistic sexual acts.”
 
This is the reported list of Israeli hostages released tonight:1. Abigail Idan, 4,Ella Elyakim, 8, Dafna Elyakim, 15 Hagar Brodetz Ama, 40 and her children Ofri Brodetz, 10 Yuval Brodetz, 8. Oriya Brodetz, 4. Chen Goldstein, 48 and her childrenAgam Goldstein, 17 Tal Goldstein, 9 Gal Goldstein, 11 Alma Avraham, 84 Adrian Aviva Siegel, 63

IDF Chief of Staff Lt. Gen. Herzi Halevi held an assessment at the Southern Command in Beersheba today to approve battle plans for after the ceasefire, the military says.

The IDF says the assessment was carried out with the commander of the Southern Command, Maj. Gen. Yaron Finkelman.

Israel is in the midst of a temporary truce with Hamas, which has seen the terror group release daily groups of hostages in exchange for Palestinian prisoners and a ceasefire.
 
The International Red Cross has reportedly Turned-Over the 17 Hostages to IDF Special Forces and Shin Bet Agents on the Border of the Gaza Strip at the Karni Border Crossing; this Transfer has gone much differently than previous Exchanges with the Hostages being Handed-Over by the Red Cross to Israel directly instead of through the Rafah Border Crossing into Egypt.
 
At the age of 3, Avigail Idan became a symbol: a symbol of the cruelty of Hamas, a symbol of great pain, a symbol of hope for the return of the kidnapped. Two days after turning 4 years old in captivity and after spending more than 50 days in Gaza's tunnels without familiar faces around her, she finally returned to Israel. Avigail, whose two parents were murdered in front of her eyes by Hamas, does not know that she is an orphan

US says it hopes truce will be extended ‘another day or 2 days or 3’ to release more hostages

US National Security Adviser Jake Sullivan says the US is working to have the ongoing four-day truce extended by additional days in order for more than 50 hostages to be released, but that this will ultimately be decided by Hamas.

“It could be that the pause is extended for another day, or two days, or three days or even more,” Sullivan tells ABC’s “This Week.” “The ball is in Hamas’s court on that because what Israel has said is that it is prepared to pause another day of fighting for every 10 hostages that Hamas releases.”

“If the pause stops, the responsibility for that rests on the shoulders of Hamas, not on the shoulders of Israel,” the top Biden aide asserts.

Sullivan recognizes that the four-day truce allows Hamas the ability to “refit and retool” and also to “generate propaganda” on social media.
