Israeli citizens and foreigners remain hostages to Hamas and other radical Islamic terrorist organizations in Gaza. It is believed that there are just over 120 hostages still in Gaza.
Eleven of the hostages are foreigners and the rest are Israeli, according to Israeli officials. Those waiting to be freed range in age from 10-month-old baby Kfir Bibas, who Hamas claims is dead but has produced no evidence to confirm, to men in their 80s.
Since Hamas terrorists attacked Israel on Oct. 7 killing 1,200 Israelis and taking 240 hostage, more than 100 hostages have been released, mainly women and children.
Hamas and Israel agreed to a temporary cease-fire, brokered by Qatar, the U.S., and Egypt, that went into effect on Nov. 24. The original cease-fire was slated to last four days, and Hamas agreed to release 50 hostages in exchange for 150 Palestinian prisoners held in Israel.
On what was supposed to be the last day of the cease-fire, Israel and Hamas agreed to extend the pause in fighting for another two days. Israel agreed to release 30 Palestinian prisoners for every 10 hostages Hamas freed. Foreign workers, mainly from Thailand, were released in a separate deal.
The extended cease-fire ended early Friday morning, and fighting has resumed.
“We will continue this war until we achieve the three goals—to release all our abductees, to eliminate Hamas completely, and to ensure that Gaza will never again face such a threat,” Prime Minister Benjamin Netanyahu told U.S. Secretary of State Antony Blinken on Thursday.
The hostages still in Gaza are held by Hamas, Islamic Jihad, and likely other small terrorist organizations. Some of the Israelis originally thought to be hostages have since been found to have been murdered, either on Oct. 7 or while in captivity in Gaza.
Below are names and pictures of the men, women, and children who are believed to still be alive and held hostage in Gaza.
