IDF said to deny Ben Gvir receiving footage of hostages being tortured
Military sources quoted by Hebrew language media deny a report claiming that National Security Minister Itamar Ben Gvir was sent video footage of hostages being tortured by Hamas in Gaza along with a demand to ease treatment of Palestinian detainees.
Channel 12 news reports that the army informed families of hostages that Ben Gvir was not sent any such videos.
Ynet quotes a military source adding that “there are constantly intelligence materials and other [evidence] about the hostages and their conditions. All the updates regarding them go through Defense Minister Yoav Gallant and Prime Minister Benjamin Netanyahu.
