India on Wednesday issued a statement urging the release of all hostages in Gaza. Randhir Jaiswal, the Ministry of External Affairs’s official spokesperson, took to X to advocate for the continued delivery of humanitarian aid to the people of Gaza.
“We are concerned about the situation in Gaza. All hostages must be freed. We also call for the sustained supply of humanitarian assistance to the people of Gaza,” Jaiswal posted on X.
In the early hours of Tuesday, the Israel Defense Forces (IDF) announced that they had carried out “extensive strikes on terror targets belonging to Hamas” in the Gaza Strip.
The IDF stated, “In accordance with the political echelon, the IDF and ISA are currently conducting extensive strikes on terror targets belonging to the Hamas terrorist organization in the Gaza Strip.”
In a series of posts on X, the Israeli Prime Minister’s Office explained that the strikes were carried out following directives from Prime Minister Benjamin Netanyahu and Defense Minister Israel Katz. The decision came in response to Hamas’s repeated refusal to release hostages and its rejection of all proposals from U.S. Presidential Envoy Steve Witkoff and other mediators.
