Representative of its armed wing Hamas stated Saturday night that the organization intended to release two more hostages for “humanitarian reasons“, but that Israel refused to accept them.
Abu Ubaydah, a spokesman for the Iz al-Din al-Qassam Brigades, said in a brief statement that the group informed Qatar on Friday of Hamas’ intention to release the two hostages.
From his side Israel called “propaganda” Hamas’ claim that the armed group wanted to release two more hostages on the same day it released Americans Judith Tai Ranaan and her daughter Natalie.
In a brief statement, the office of Israeli Prime Minister Benjamin Netanyahu points out: “We will not refer to the false propaganda of Hamas».
The announcement adds: “We will continue to act in every way so that all abductees and missing persons return to their homes».
The Palestinian group kidnapped nearly 210 hostages in its deadly attack in southern Israel on October 7.
