IDF Admits Guilt in Killing Three Israeli Hostages in Gaza Conflict

Israeli troops erroneously identified them as a threat

On Friday, the Israeli military mistakenly killed three Israeli hostages during its ground operation in the Gaza Strip, military officials said.

The army's chief spokesman, Rear Adm. Daniel Hagari, said Israeli troops found the hostages and erroneously identified them as a threat. He said it was not clear if they had escaped their captors or been abandoned.

The deaths occurred in the Gaza City area of Shijaiyah, where troops have engaged in fierce battles against Hamas militants in recent days.
