Over the past hour, between October 15th, 2025, 12:35 AM UTC and 1:35 AM UTC, Israeli officials and commentators on social media platform X have expressed sentiments regarding the fate of hostages and future actions in Gaza. One post questioned the feasibility of releasing hostages, stating, "How do we release them? Our spokesman stayed with the Zionists, who will look for them after the day?", as seen on X by user WachtelDan. Further commentary on X from WachtelDan suggested a shift in focus, with one post stating, "Gaza finished, now a bank queue." Another expressed deep regret over individuals who crossed the border and are now prisoners, stating, "Walla. Nothing hurts me in my heart other than the Shabab who crossed the border and now prisoners." Other posts included calls for renewed action, such as "Make a new (Topan) flood," and expressions of hope for the return of individuals, "Universe a new generation and will bring them back with the help of Allah." These statements follow recent developments concerning the transfer of Israeli hostage bodies from Gaza City. Previous reports from October 14th, 2025, indicated the Red Cross completed the transfer of remains of Israeli hostages, with vehicles departing the area. These transfers occurred after Hamas had released bodies to the Red Cross, and the Rafah crossing remained closed.
