Hamas claims they don't know which hostages are alive or dead. Weird, they seem to be able to give out exact death and injury figures each day but not for the hostages? Israeli officials - quoted in local media - demand clear answers from Hamas on key issues as well as a list of the surviving Israeli hostages who could be released with an agreement. Meanwhile, a senior Hamas official, Dr Basem Naim, told the BBC on Sunday that "practically, it is impossible to know who is still alive" because of continuing Israeli bombing. "They are in different areas with different groups. We have asked for a ceasefire to collect that data," he added. https://www.bbc.com/news/world-middle-east-68469699

How about the ones being sexually abused right now? New UN report: UN finds evidence of rape on Oct. 7 and after; Israel: They tried to downplay issue https://aseannow.com/topic/1321564-un-finds-evidence-of-rape-on-oct-7-and-after-israel-they-tried-to-downplay-issue/ 17.

You know more than the UN who visited the hospital then? Giorgios Petropoulos, head of the Gaza sub-office of the UN Co-ordinator for Humanitarian Affairs (OCHA) told the BBC he and a team sent to al-Shifa hospital found a large number of people with bullet wounds. He said all but a handful of the 70 to 80 patients in the emergency room he visited had been injured during the convoy incident. In addition to those with bullet wounds, he said doctors had treated many who had fallen down or been trampled - but he was unable to say with certainty which group was larger. https://www.bbc.com/news/world-middle-east-68454348

Its not off topic just because you want it to be, this is in London, which happens to be in the UK. Its totally relevant but you can't justify any cause to question what his beliefs are in Israel's war in Gaza becaase there are none. He has every right to do what he is doing without being questioned.

Why is protesting risky? Why do you classify these people as activists? They want the return of their loved ones. What makes this father an activist for wanting his daughter released from the clutches of the terrorists in Gaza and making that known in public. If anyone wants to question him should it not be to offer empathy and thoughts for his distress, not what his beliefs are. Father of 9 year old kidnapped Israeli girl Emily Hand speaks today at an event outside Downing Street, London.Thomas Hand her father said: “My daughter Emily was kidnapped…she’s now in the hands of Hamas- down deep in the tunnels of Hamas.” https://www.timesofisrael.com/in-london-father-of-9-year-old-hamas-hostage-emily-pleads-help-me-bring-her-home/

More imaginary claims. Anyone can become a Zionist. To them it can simply be they are glad that the State of Israel exists, and wants it to survive and thrive. I believe that and if that makes someone want to label me a Zionist then I'm more than happy. I also want a solution where Palestine also has its own statehood.

Jewish actress told not to leave London theater due to pro-Palestinian rallies In a Saturday evening tweet on X aimed at Prime Minister Rishi Sunak and Opposition Labor Party leader Sir Keir Starmer, she wrote: “Another Saturday post matinee and I have been asked not to step out the theatre because of all the demonstrations and marches going on.” “London 2024 — ridiculous isn’t it,” added Oberman, who did not say who had told her to stay indoors or the nature of the apparent danger. It came after, earlier Saturday, Sunak said that extremism against the backdrop of the Gaza war was undermining the UK’s democracy. https://www.timesofisrael.com/jewish-actress-told-not-to-leave-london-theater-due-to-pro-palestinian-rallies
