Yarden Bibas regrets not protecting his family from Hamas

Yarden Bibas, a freed Israeli hostage, apologized for not protecting his wife, Shiri, and their two sons, Kfir and Ariel, who were killed by Hamas during an attack in October 2023. Their remains were returned last week as part of a ceasefire deal. At the funeral, attended by family and friends, Bibas expressed deep sorrow and regret. He recalled their last moments together and shared memories of his family, who had become symbols of Israel's hostage crisis. Hamas announced it will return the bodies of four Israeli hostages in exchange for the release of hundreds of Palestinian prisoners. Israel has delayed this release, citing concerns over the treatment of hostages by Hamas.
