NZFOI: Tragic news, indeed.
Israel’s army has said it accidentally shot three hostages dead after “mistakenly” identifying them as a threat.
“During combat in Shejaiya, the IDF mistakenly identified three Israeli hostages as a threat and as a result, fired toward them, and the hostages were killed,” Israel Defence Forces said in a statement.
The victims include Yotam Haim, who was kidnapped from Kibbutz Kfar Aza, and Samer Talalka, who was taken from Kibbutz Nir Am on October 7. [NZFOI: Jerusalem Post names the third hostage victim as Alon Shamriz].
