They purposely kept this information from Israel until they received some of their terrorist friends as they know citizens will be angry about this.

RIP.

War is evil, especially purposeful targeting of innocent people.

Hamas’ youngest hostages, Kfir and Ariel Bibas, 2 and 5, and their mother are dead and their bodies will be returned to Israel this week, the terror group said in a ghoulish announcement Tuesday.


Kfir Bibas never celebrated a birthday in freedom after he and his family were kidnapped on Oct. 7 when he was just 9 months old.


Israel has not confirmed the deaths of the redheaded boys and their mom, Shiri, but said it had “grave concerns” about their wellbeing.

No, Hamas reported to Israel back in November 2023 that Shiri, Ariel, and Kfir had been killed in an Israeli air strike. At the time, it was viewed as impossible-to-confirm propaganda. (Which turned out to be accurate in the case of Daniella, who was also reported by Hamas to have been killed in an Israeli air strike, yet who was returned alive this month.) Hamas also released a video of Yarden, still in captivity, being told that his family had been killed. So, this has been known for a long time.

While I think Shiri, Ariel, and Kfir are likely dead, and have been for some time, Israel has not confirmed their deaths. We'll see what happens on Thursday.
