Netanyahu offers $5 million and safe passage for returning hostages from Gaza

wmur.com November 20, 2024, 08:01 PM UTC

Israeli Prime Minister Benjamin Netanyahu announced a $5 million reward and safe passage for anyone who returns a hostage from Gaza. He stated that those who bring back hostages will be allowed to leave with their families. Netanyahu's offer comes amid criticism that he is stalling negotiations for hostage releases. The mother of a hostage accused him of endangering lives by "trading" with Hamas and using bribes to influence captors. Since Hamas's attack on October 7, 2023, over 250 people were taken hostage, with 97 still in Gaza. The situation has led to significant outrage in Israel, especially regarding the fate of those rescued.
