โจIsraeli media extensively covers the escalating hostage crisis, especially following the harrowing video of Rom Braslavsky pleading for his life (Kan, times, kikar, Haaretz, i24NEWS, Kipa). Prime Minister Netanyahu asserts Hamas rejects a deal, pushing for military victory alongside hostage release, and accuses Hamas of starvation (Israel Hayom, n12, Ynet, Davar, Maariv, Srugim, INN, Makor Rishon). Hostage families vehemently criticize this approach, fearing intense military action endangers captives and leads to "perdition" (13tv, n12, Ynet, Davar, Maariv).
