Dozens of Dual Citizens Among Those Captured by Hamas, Including Russians and Chinese
The leader of the Hamas movement has announced that they will not negotiate on the exchange of hostages as long as the fighting continues. Since yesterday, it has been reported that the Palestinian movement's militants are threatening live executions of individuals if Israel does not stop bombing the Gaza Strip.
It is worth noting that among the captives are dozens of dual citizens, including those from Russia and China. The Russian embassy has reported that four Russians are missing.
Currently, Israel has reported 900 casualties and 4,000 injuries, while the Palestinian side has reported 700 casualties and 3,000 injuries. Israeli strikes on hospitals in Gaza have led to a healthcare collapse. This has been communicated to RIA Novosti by the Palestinian Red Crescent. Five hospitals have been struck by Israeli bombardments, and due to a complete blockade of the sector, they are facing shortages of medicines, equipment, electricity, and fuel. Hospitals are only functioning for four hours to receive the injured.
