Hamas's military wing, the Al-Qassam Brigades, announced that an Israeli female hostage was killed in northern Gaza amid heavy Israeli bombardment. Spokesman Abu Obeida stated that after re-establishing communication with resistance fighters assigned to protect the hostages, it was confirmed that one Israeli female prisoner had died in an area under Israeli attack, and another female hostage remains in critical condition. He emphasized that contact with these fighters had been lost for several weeks. Abu Obeida held Israeli Prime Minister Benjamin Netanyahu, his government, and military leaders fully responsible for the lives of the hostages, accusing them of causing their suffering and death through continued assaults on Gaza. He warned that due to the extensive destruction, the enemy must be prepared to deal with the problem of missing bodies of their own hostages.
