💨 Abstract

A former Israeli diplomat, Daniel Shek, has warned that Israel's latest ground offensive in Gaza endangers the remaining hostages and hinders their return. Shek, along with former hostage Shoshan Haran, advocates for diplomatic efforts to free the hostages rather than continued military action, which they argue puts the captives in immediate danger. Israel had a failed three-phase plan to release hostages, collapsed due to political constraints.
