International Hostages Still Held by Hamas in Gaza

As of August 20, 2024, citizens from Thailand, Nepal, and Tanzania are still being held hostage by Hamas terrorists in Gaza. The ongoing crisis, which began during the October 7, 2023 attacks, continues to affect not only Israelis but also foreign nationals who were working or residing in the region.

The hostages include agricultural workers and students, many of whom were in Israel to support their families back home. Their plight has drawn international attention, with families and governments urging for their immediate release and safe return.

The image above, circulated by advocacy groups, serves as a reminder that the impact of terrorism extends far beyond national borders. The international community continues to call for the humane treatment and release of all hostages held in Gaza.

We have not forgotten about them. Hamas terrorism hurts more than just Israelis.
