After six Israeli hostages were found executed in a Gaza tunnel, the nation mourned deeply. While public pressure mounts for an immediate hostage deal, experts warn that such an agreement could undermine Israel’s efforts in the ongoing Gaza conflict.
After the bodies of six Israelis hostages were found in a Gaza tunnel on Saturday night, the nation of Israel went into mourning. During this war, the IDF has found many bodies of hostages while operating in the Gaza Strip. This time, however, the autopsies concluded that the hostages were executed just days before the IDF got to them.
This tragedy has caused many Israelis to go into hysteria, take to the streets and demand that the government of Israel sign a hostage deal immediately whatever the conditions. It has also caused world leaders to redouble their efforts to negotiate a hostage deal to release the rest of the hostages. The problem is, a hostage deal might just be the worst possible outcome for the Gaza War.
