Dr. Sharone Lifschitz, daughter of an elderly Gaza hostage, urges for the release of all captives. She describes the ongoing hostage releases as a "reality show from hell" and expresses concern for her father, Oded Lifshitz, who remains unfreed. Oded Lifshitz, 84, was taken during the October 7, 2023, Hamas attack. His daughter fears for his health, especially after seeing the frail condition of recently released hostages. She emphasizes the need for a focus on the safe return of all hostages. Israel recently released nearly 200 Palestinian prisoners as part of a ceasefire agreement. The situation surrounding the hostages has sparked outrage in Israel, increasing pressure on Prime Minister Benjamin Netanyahu to extend the ceasefire.
