Kfir and Ariel Bibas were murdered in cold blood. Hamas killed them “with their bare hands”

IDF Spokesperson Reveals Brutal Murder of Bibas Children; Mother Shiri's Whereabouts Unknown

In a solemn press briefing today, IDF Spokesperson Brigadier General Daniel Hagari provided harrowing details about the tragic fate of Ariel and Kfir Bibas, two young children who were abducted from their home in Nir Oz on October 7, 2023. Hagari confirmed that both children were brutally murdered by their captors during the initial weeks of the conflict.

Ariel and Kfir were murdered in cold blood during their captivity in Gaza, Hagari stated. Contrary to Hamas false claims, they were not killed by gunfire but were brutally murdered with bare hands. The perpetrators then committed heinous acts to conceal their atrocities. These conclusions are supported by forensic evidence and intelligence findings.

The spokesperson also addressed the ongoing uncertainty regarding the childrens mother, Shiri Bibas. Despite previous assurances, her body was not among those returned. Hamas did not fulfill their agreement to return Shiri, Hagari emphasized. We demand her immediate return.

Hagari recounted a poignant interaction with the children father, Yarden Bibas, who was also abducted but has since been released.״Yarden looked me in the eyes last night and pleaded that the world be horrified by the manner in which his children were murdered״, Hagari shared.״Yarden, the entire nation shares in your grief and awaits Shiri's return. We are committed to bringing back all the hostages promptly״.

This revelation comes amidst heightened tensions following Hamas' violation of the ceasefire agreement and recent attempted bombings targeting civilian buses. The IDF remains resolute in its mission to safeguard its citizens and hold those responsible for such atrocities accountable.
