Israeli airstrikes on Gaza have killed around 50 hostages, Hamas said on Thursday. The terrorist group had taken 224 people as hostages when it launched a surprise attack on Israel on October 7, killing 1,400 people and triggering a war. Since then, Israel has been bombing Gaza, resulting in more than 7,000 fatalities, as per the Palestinian Health Ministry. Israel has rejected the United Nations (UN) call for a ceasefire, saying it is not warring "with Palestinians but with Hamas."
