Hamas has issued a stark warning, stating that Israeli hostages held in Gaza will return “inside coffins” if Israel attempts to free them through military action rather than negotiating a deal.
In a statement released by the militant group, which controls Gaza, Hamas claimed its fighters guarding the hostages in the Palestinian enclave have received “new instructions” on how to handle the situation if Israeli forces approach. The group also released an illustrated poster apparently depicting hostages being threatened with a gun.
“Netanyahu’s insistence on liberating the prisoners through military pressure instead of concluding a deal will mean that they will return to their families inside coffins and their families will have to choose whether they are dead or alive,” said Abu Obaida, spokesperson for Hamas’ military wing, the Al-Qassam Brigades, on Monday.
This warning comes in the wake of Israeli forces recovering the bodies of six hostages from Gaza over the weekend. An Israeli spokesperson stated on Sunday that the hostages had been “brutally murdered by Hamas terrorists” shortly before soldiers reached them.

One hundred dead terrorists for each Jewish hostage executed; that’s the proportion, right?
Hamas is willing to die and they already have 35000 dead soldiers. You have to threaten IRan, not Hamas.
Solution is very simple. Israel needs to give 24 hours to Hammas to return ALL of the hostages. If not 10000 Arab prisoners who are terrorists will get executed and each will meet their 70 virgins Tahto Gahanam . Next, all the Tunels will get gassed. The terrorists will then come out and at that time the air force will make sure that they will get the best virgins Tahto gahanam, enshallah!
In every hostage situation, negotiarions continue until a hostage is harmed. Once one hostage is harmed, negotiation are over and the location is stormed. That is the procedure in EVERY hostage situation. In this case, many hostages were sadly murdered. There is no logic to further negotiations.
Unommin: you said it. Probably even 2 for each 1 will do it. It’s either for blockheads to do the math.
Each missile, gets 2 back.
If they launch 10, then they get 20.
Each soldier killed, 2 Muslims, etc.
That would do the job even in the Muslim mindset I do believe.
They are only emboldened because they get us at our weak point. What the weak point? Western ideology. It’s as obvious as could be that they are playing us. Us means “the US.” And everyone else.
Democracy, free speech and human rights are wonderful, but not when murderers are intentionally weaponizing them as the west’s Achilles heel.
He who comes to kills you, kill him first.
He has made his own blood hefker, and has no human rights if he threatens others.
This is the price we are all paying for not going by the basic principles of the Torah.
Elul. Let’s be mischazek amongst ourselves in this yesod, and don’t be shy to speak out against all Muslims and non Muslims, Jews or non Jews, who don’t agree.
Carpet bomb Gaza back to Stone Age.
