The International Committee of the Red Cross said it was attempting to gain access to people being held on both sides to provide medical care and learn news of their fate for their loved ones. Fabrizio Carboni, regional director for the Near and Middle East, said kidnapping is prohibited under international humanitarian law and that anyone detained, including combatants, must be treated “humanely and with dignity.” Health care workers must be protected to ensure people needing help can receive treatment, he said.
“The violence directed against civilians is appalling and cannot be justified,” Carboni said in a statement. “If the situation continues to escalate, then civilians on both sides will suffer immensely.”

With these people , you can not go out in the world and enjoy a music festival!! These kids did nothing to hamas !!! NOTHING ! TO PALASTINE???? WHY ? WHY PLEASE TELL US ???? WHY ??? CIVILLIANS ????? KIDS !!!! ???? WHY
my thoughts and prayers are with the oppressed people may God help them to live on their land like any human beings.🙏
I don’t understand why Americans insist on traveling to war zones! Then their families are shocked when things like this happen.
Innocents suffers.
Palestinian catching them to negotiation to release their families from Israelis Jails, and Israel air strikes majority city of Gaz now they are maybe dead because the Israelis air strikes 😎
They might have been taken to hospital we hope this will be the truth for your families. Please return them safely
I really hate to hear this, but it is even more proof that everyone should stay in their own d**n Countries. We have our own Countries for a reason, and for a purpose, too, so stay in them, because that is where you belong. No one has any business going somewhere that they do not belong. Any sort of travel, period, for anyone, and to anywhere, should not be allowed, and should be banned, 100%. It would solve a lot of the Worlds issues, if it was outlawed.
GAZA is the worlds largest open air prison camp. – David Cameron, Prime Minister of United Kingdom.
Jangan palestina menguasai israel, di israel yesus lahir hanjur kan iblis palestina dan hamas from indonesia 🇮🇩 .
All of my life I've thought America can't take care of its citizens in another country. I thought US citizens travel under their own risk. Why would the US intervene for US citizens not in America? Stop mixing emotions and war.
Everyone knows that it's Israel behind this whole thing 🏴☠️🇮🇱🇺🇲
U S citizens. Our people
The families of Americans missing in Israel, like families in similar situations worldwide, face a heart-wrenching and challenging ordeal. Their calls for increased efforts to locate and return their loved ones are deeply understandable and reflect the profound anguish and uncertainty they endure.
In such cases, it is crucial for both the U.S. and Israeli governments to work together closely to provide support, share information, and conduct thorough investigations. Families should receive the compassion, guidance, and assistance they need during these difficult times.
Efforts to locate missing individuals should include cooperation between law enforcement agencies, intelligence agencies, and diplomatic channels. Additionally, raising public awareness and involving international organizations and human rights groups can help shed light on these cases and bring additional resources to the search efforts.
The emotional toll on the families is immense, and they deserve empathy, understanding, and a commitment to do everything possible to find their loved ones. It is a testament to the enduring love and determination of these families that they continue to advocate for the return of their missing relatives, and their calls should be taken seriously and addressed with the utmost urgency and compassion.
Опять израильские фашисты кошмарят палестинцев.
There are no civilians in the West Bank or Gaza strip – 11 Americans killed. Do not care Hamas, you started a war. this is called Karma.
I am Praying for All Israelis. This is breaking my heart ❤️ 💙
