URGENT: Parents of Gaza Hostage Confirm Widespread Israeli Support

Breaking News: Parents of Gaza Hostage Confirm Widespread Israeli Support The parents of the last dead hostage in Gaza, Itzik and Talik Gvili, have spoken to the BBC, confirming that their son's body remains in Gaza. Ran Gvili, a 24-year-old Israeli police officer, was killed during the Hamas-led attack on Israel on October 7, 2023. The Gvili family is demanding that Hamas return Ran's body before any progress can be made in the Gaza peace deal. "We really hope that all people in the world... want to end this situation and go to the second phase, so Hamas must bring Rani home," his mother Talik said. Ran was among 251 people taken hostage in the Hamas-led attack, which also killed 1,200 people. His body was taken to Gaza as a hostage, according to the Israel Defense Forces (IDF). The family is seeking closure after the return of the body of Thai national Suthisak Rintalak on Wednesday. The Israeli government has confirmed widespread support for the Gvili family's demands. The situation remains tense, with the Gaza peace deal stalled due to the unresolved issue of Ran's body. This is a developing story, and we will provide updates as more information becomes available.
