U.N. Security Council to Debate Situation of Israeli Hostages in Gaza

NEW YORK CITY, USA, AUG 5 – Israeli Foreign Minister Gideon Saar condemned Hamas for starving hostages and urged the UN Security Council to end civilian kidnapping, highlighting 49 hostages remain captive, 22 alive, officials said.

  • The U.N. Security Council is discussing the situation of hostages in Gaza at Israel's request, highlighted by Israel's Gideon Sa'ar and the suffering of hostages shown in Hamas videos, including Evyatar David and his brother.
  • Gideon Sa'ar criticized Russia for blaming Israel for the lack of a ceasefire, stating that Hamas has blocked medical assessments for hostages as required in a previous ceasefire deal.
  • Sa'ar described the hostages’ conditions as a state of starvation and torture, alleging that Hamas uses their suffering for propaganda while enjoying basic necessities.
  • Dorothy Shea, the interim U.S. ambassador to the U.N., stated that actions taken by some nations recently have emboldened Hamas instead of pressuring them to free the hostages.
