Kibbutz Be’eri announces that its residents Yossi Sharabi and Itay Svirsky were killed in Gaza and that their bodies are being held by the Hamas terror group.
It calls for their bodies to be returned for burial and for the release of all hostages.
Sharabi and Svirsky were featured in a pair of propaganda videos published earlier this week by Hamas with the latter clip leading the IDF to fear for the lives of the pair.
