Bullet wounds were found on the bodies of six hostages recovered by the Israeli military earlier this week. The grim finding confirms the fears that most of them had been murdered by Hamas terrorists during their 10-month-long captivity in Gaza.
“The Israeli army confirmed on Thursday that signs of gunfire were found on the bodies of the six hostages who were recovered on Tuesday from Khan Yunis in the Gaza Strip,” the Israeli newspaper Haaretz reported.
The Israel Defense Forces (IDF) on Monday night extracted the bodies of six hostages from the southern Gaza town of Khan Yunis. The recovery operation in Hamas-infested territory was conducted after the terrorist group repeatedly rejected President Joe Biden’s latest ceasefire proposal, demanding more security concessions from Israel.

The Jerusalem Post reported:
Signs of bullets and gunshot wounds were found on the bodies of hostages recovered from the Gaza Strip earlier this week, the IDF confirmed on Thursday.
Preliminary findings were received from Israel’s National Institute of Forensic Medicine, which performed autopsies and examined the bodies of the six hostages, the military stated.
According to the IDF report, marks indicating bullets and wounds were found on the bodies of the six hostages. Additionally, four bodies found next to the hostages in the Gaza Strip were assumed to be terrorists, and when examined, no signs of gunshots were observed. (…)
The Hostages and Missing Families Forum commented on the development, stating, “The presence of bullets in the bodies of the late hostages … is further proof of the cruelty of the terrorists who held the 109 hostages for already 321 days.”
The recovery of the bodies lowers the number of hostages still believed to be in Hamas captivity to 105.
Netanyahu resists Biden demand Israel leave crucial Gaza-Egyptian border area used to supply Hamas
Israeli Prime Minister Benjamin Netanyahu is resisting the pressure from President Joe Biden to give up on key security demands in a bid to reach a ceasefire with the terror group Hamas in Gaza.
President Joe Biden called Prime Minister Netanyahu on Wednesday to press him on the ceasefire deal. Democratic presidential candidate Kamala Harris was also on the line with Biden. “Vice President Kamala Harris, the Democratic presidential candidate, also joined the call, according to the White House,” The Times of Israel noted.
The main sticking points in the negotiations include Israel’s control over the strategic Philadelphi Corridor along the Gaza-Egypt border and continued IDF presence in the enclave to check the movement of Hamas terror fighters. The 9-mile-long Philadelphi Corridor is a major route for smuggling weapons and moving terrorists in and out of the Hamas-held Gaya.
Reuters reported Wednesday:
U.S. President Joe Biden, in a phone call with Israeli Prime Minister Benjamin Netanyahu on Wednesday, stressed the urgent need to conclude a Gaza ceasefire-for-hostages deal and pointed to upcoming Cairo talks as crucial, the White House said. (…)
“The president stressed the urgency of bringing the ceasefire and hostage release deal to closure and discussed upcoming talks in Cairo to remove any remaining obstacles,” a White House statement about the call said.
The Israeli prime minister did not confirm the White House’s version of the call. “Netanyahu’s office would not comment on the conversation,” the Israel news website added.
According to Israeli media reports, Netanyahu is committed to maintaining Israel’s control over the Philadelphia Corridor despite Biden’s relentless pressure.
The Israeli TV channel i24NEWS reported:
A political source told i24NEWS on Thursday that “Prime Minister Benjamin Netanyahu has not changed his position on the need for Israeli control and presence in the Philadelphia Corridor.”
This comes after a report in the Washington Post that Netanyahu made concessions on retaining Israeli control over the southern Gaza Strip.
The source said that there will be a partial withdrawal of IDF forces and a re-deployment of the forces along Philadelphi Corridor, remaining in strategic positions and using electronic means above and below ground.
Gazan man says it loud and clear:
“We are the ones who launched this war and we will end it (…) We are the conquerors (…) We will keep sacrificing until all of us are dead”

What’s surprise
The notion that the U.S., under the vile, stupid and evil “Biden-Harris” Administration, has acted as an ally to Israel during this war, is farcical.
Every single step that Israel has taken in legitimate reprisal and retribution against the goose-stepping, genocidal Hamas terrorists and thugs has been hindered, undermined and opposed by the Dhimmi-crat Party and its apparatchiks.
Israel has been fighting with one hand tied behind its back, thanks to the Dhimmi-crats perfidy and dhimmitude.
Hamas would have been already destroyed by now, Iran’s predations curbed, and, Gaza and the middle east, at-large, in a better place, today, if we had a U.S. president exhibiting “zero tolerance” moral clarity when it comes to fighting Islamofascists, terrorists and Muslim supremacists.
True, but the Hamas lovers feel that anything short of agreeing its good to exterminate all the Jews is the same as aid.
Under the “deal“ that Biden and Blinken have been trying to push on Israel, Hamas would’ve gotten the same credit (release of live convicted mass murderers) for turning over these bodies as they would’ve gotten for turning over live hostages. Which means there is no incentive for Hamas to keep any of the hostages alive and every incentive to murder them before their release.
‘I can’t believe terrorists murdered hostages in cold blood.’
– Said no one, ever.
From Reuters, “U.S. President Joe Biden, in a phone call with Israeli Prime Minister Benjamin Netanyahu on Wednesday, stressed the urgent need to conclude a Gaza ceasefire-for-hostages deal”
Note to Joe: how about calling Hamas’ supporters and demanding the release of the hostages and the surrender of the criminal murderers and kidnappers? After that, there will be a ceasefire.
I’d guess they were shot in the operation of being rescued.
Well, that’s one of the dumber things I’ve read today, and I’ve been reading the mass media. Congrats, I guess.
You just get fouler and fouler.
And as usual, you’d be dead wrong.
blmplo is a danger to humanity
I am afraid this will be the pattern of hostage recovery. Bullet wounds may be just the last sign of abuse. I Pray for safe recovery of all the victims still held.
It doesn’t get talked about much (in public). But, there is significant concern that some of the female hostages who are of child-bearing years have been raped (routinely, even systematically) and impregnated, possibly already giving birth in captivity. I can’t imagine the horror.
Their children will be Jewish.
Not according to Islamic law. The Judeo-Christian tradition is that religious identify follows the mother. In Islam, it follows the father or the mother. If either the father or the mother is Muslim, then the children are seen to also be Muslim. Raping slaves is an acceptable way to propagate their faith…so they believe.
I knew that Jewish tradition was matrilineal but this is the first I’ve heard that Christian tradition follows suit.
Yes. And raised Chas v sholom as Muslims by people who will train them from birth to hate Jews & to murder them at every opportunity.
I wasn’t aware that anyone didn’t consider this probable
“We will keep sacrificing until all of us are dead”
Two thumbs up!
Future returns of captured terrorists should be in the same condition.
Israel has no option other than the complete destruction of GAZA and perhaps Lebanon anymore than the Allies had a choice regarding Europe or Japan. The forces opposing Israel have chosen death. They should get it.
Why all the fuss about shooting the hostages? Would you rather they beat them to death with sticks?
When a kidnapped person dies, we don’t ask how they died. It’s the kidnappers’ fault regardless.
