Merav Leshem Gonen, the mother of hostage Romi Gonen, discussed in an interview about the list of hostages published by Hamas and the possibility of a partial deal to recover the hostages.
“I want to remind everyone that we are dealing with what Hamas has published, and they have an aim to incite, hurt, and cause pain, and we need to understand how much this impacts families,” she began.
She added, “I believe the decision-makers are constantly working on a single deal. I have no doubt that the negotiation team and Prime Minister have a list of all one hundred in mind, with a clear understanding of the consequences if anyone else is harmed,” Merav concluded.
The list of 34 hostages that the Palestinian group says it is willing to release in the first stage of a potential ceasefire agreement with Israel was shared by a senior Hamas official with British media. It is unclear how many of those named remain alive.
All but two were captured during Hamas’s attack on Israel on 7 October 2023. The ages of those on the list range from one year old to 86. The list also includes children who Hamas previously said had been killed in an Israeli air strike. Several hostages who Hamas says are sick are also on the list. (INN / VFI News)
