Israel will not give up opportunity to get hostages back - IDF

Israel will not pass up any opportunity to get the hostages held by Hamas back, IDF Spokesperson R-Adm Daniel Hagari stated on Thursday, but stated that the video released by Palestinian Islamic Jihad of two hostages was "psychological warfare."

PIJ announced earlier on Thursday that an elderly woman and a child could be released. They were later named as Hanna Katzir, 77, and Yagil Yaakov, 12, both of Kibbutz Nir Oz. In a video they were seen lambasting Israeli Prime Minister Benjamin Netanyahu.
