Israel Offers Money To Gaza Strip Residents In Return For Info On Hostages

New Delhi: The Israeli military has requested Gaza Strip residents to share actionable information about the locations where Hamas has kept Israeli hostages.

In a post on X, the Israel Defence Forces (IDF) offered money for giving accurate information that could lead to the rescue of the hostages. The IDF also promised protection and confidentiality of those who give information about where the hostages are being held, AFP and other agencies reported.

At least 220 hostages are still in Hamas captivity, the report said.

“If your will is to live in peace and to have a better future for your children, do the humanitarian deed immediately and share verified and valuable information about hostages being held in your area. The Israeli military assures you that it will invest maximum effort in providing security for you and your home, and you will receive a financial reward.  We guarantee you complete confidentiality,” IDF said.

“The contact details are: Secure phone call: 8619 WhatsApp, Telegram, Signal: +972503957992,” the IDF said in the post on X, which also has the same message in Arabic.

Israel has accused Hamas of keeping civilians near rocket-launching sites to use them as human shields. Two elderly Hamas hostages were airlifted to an Israeli hospital to be reunited with family on Tuesday, as the US demanded Hamas release more than 200 other captives before Gaza ceasefire talks are considered.
