Hamas Savagery

Israel Recovers 3 Dead Hostages in Gaza — Including Shani Louk

The Israel Defense Forces have recovered the bodies of three Israeli hostages in Gaza, including that of Shani Louk, who became an international symbol of Hamas’ savagery after images showed her being paraded around half-naked in the back of a pickup truck during the Oct. 7 attacks.

“Shani Louk, Amit Buskila and Yitzhak Gelernter were kidnapped and murdered by Hamas terrorists on October 7 from the Nova Music Festival,” the IDF said in a statement.

Louk was one of around 40 Israeli hostages seized during the bloody assault on the music festival.

Her family announced in late October that she had died at the hands of Hamas, with Israel’s President Isaac Herzog later revealing to a German newspaper that she had been beheaded.

And there are still American hostages there if they are alive. Biden wants to withhold military equipment to Israel. The U.S. State Department has moved a $1 billion package of weapons aid for Israel into the congressional review process.

Five of the eight American hostages in Gaza remain unaccounted for and the White House has no information on their status or whereabouts, White House National Security Communications Advisor John Kirby said on Friday.

Kirby said the approximately 130 remaining hostages are not all believed to be alive but the exact breakdown is unknown.
