00:00 Families of the victims of the Hamas attack on southern Israel are calling for international
00:15 action to secure the release of over 200 hostages taken.
00:19 The world must take a stand against Islamist violence to avoid its spreading and take action
00:24 to ensure the swift release of hostages taken by Hamas militants after their October 7 attack
00:30 on southern Israel, families of victims said on Wednesday.
00:34 Some 222 people were taken hostage after the attack on southern Israel, in which 1,400
00:39 people were killed.
00:40 Hamas on Monday freed two Israeli civilian women following the release of the two hostages
00:45 with dual U.S.-Israeli nationality on Friday.
00:49 A delegation of relatives visited Rome to hold talks with authorities, including Prime
00:53 Minister Giorgio Mellini as part of a campaign to bolster world efforts to free more than
00:57 200 people taken captive.
00:59 The group included Avi Ailon, whose 23-year-old daughter Shira was killed with a friend while
01:04 attending the music festival.
01:06 "Please wake up.
01:08 To the people in the world, to the people in Europe, please wake up.
01:12 Because this is not a land conflict.
01:14 This is a religious conflict," Avi said, adding that the reason why Hamas murdered
01:18 his daughter was that she was Jewish.
01:21 Health officials in the Hamas-run Gaza Strip said more than 6,500 people have been killed
01:26 since Israel began its bombing campaign in response.
01:29 Three people with dual Italian-Israeli citizenship were killed in the October 7 Hamas attack,
01:34 including Avi Ailon, Moshe Kipnis, and his wife Lilian LeHavron, who were both in the
01:40 Berikibots, one of the main targets.
01:43 Meanwhile, Israeli troops and tanks launched a brief ground raid into northern Gaza overnight
01:47 into Thursday, the military said, striking several militant targets in order to prepare
01:51 the battlefield ahead of a widely expected ground invasion after more than two weeks
01:55 of devastating air raids.
01:57 The raid came after the UN warned it is on the verge of running out of fuel in the Gaza
02:01 Strip, forcing it to sharply curtail relief efforts in the territory, which has also been
02:05 under a complete siege since Hamas' bloody rampage across southern Israel ignited the
02:10 war earlier this month.
02:12 Hospitals in Gaza struggled to treat masses of wounded with dwindling resources, health
02:16 officials said.
02:17 The death toll was soaring as Israeli jets pounded Gaza.
02:21 Workers pulled dead and wounded civilians, including many children, out of landscapes
02:24 of rubble in cities across the territory.
