Who are the hostages still held by Hamas?

On October 7, 2023, 253 Israelis and foreign nationals were kidnapped to Gaza by Hamas and gazan civilians. Since then, 105 were released in a prisioner exchange deal, 4 were released by Hamas and 3 were rescued.

However, 134 remain in captivity (4 of those were kidnapped prior to 2023). A recent investigation has concluded that more than a fifth of the hostages are dead and the fate of some other hostages remains unknown. This video explains how doctors determine which hostages are dead, based on the nature of their injury and by analyising footage and the victims' last phone calls. Additionally, during the operation in Gaza, the IDF has recovered the bodies of a few victims and returned to their families for burial.

Since I couldn't find this all in one place, I've compiled a list of: 1) hostages who are presumed alive; 2) hostaged whose death has been reported/confirmed; 3) hostages who were released or rescued. In the group of hostages presumed to be alive who haven't been released, the youngest is 1-year-old Kfir Bibas and the oldest hostage is Iraqi-born 85-year old Shlomo Mansour.

As we learn more information, I'll continue to update this post.

They need to come back home. I'm hoping for more successful rescue operations soon. Keep them in your thoughts.

So far as I'm concerned, September 1st - November 30th is Spooky Season. As soon as summer ends it's all spooks until Christmas. Put away the sunscreen, it's pumpkin time until the candy canes come out.

funny how every so often the perfect character shows up for me to use as a chew toy in my drawings/writing. i've had several good chew toys in the past but this gremlin's become the most recent. very Throwable.

also i'm cursing you with what's probably one of the most cursed trivia facts on the pizza tower wiki.

The day has finally come. Hayama and Miyaji official merchandise. We even got Hayama and Miyaji themed cocktail and ice cream! I cannot put into words how happy I was when this popped up on my explore page (I have been giggling and kicking my feet for the past hour, I am going to explode) 🩵🌟🧡

Old Art October - saved a spooky one for Halloween! Based on a dream I had - Ingo is the latest in a series of mysterious kidnappings. The imagery was strong so I drew some bits. More images and story/context under the cut, because here be horrors.

Body horror/gore, nonconsentual body modification warning

The culprits of the kidnappings? Old decaying Five Nights at Freddy's style animatronics. It seemed like they were simple ai that went rogue, wanting humans for some unclear purpose.

Well, for most the purpose was unclear. The robots discovered Ingo's voice after kidnapping, and were impressed. They decided to utilize it, for instructions and announcements in the abandoned facility they resided in. Just asking Ingo to read things wouldn't be sufficient - what if he said the wrong thing, gave out info to help the other captives escape? No, it would be much better to use a machine to force Ingo to say exactly what they wanted him to.

And they had just the device on hand! Just hook it up directly to a human's vocal cords, and you could type in whatever you wanted to make the person speak those words!

It requires a little opening up the human's neck to install, but that's not a big deal.

To the robots. It is a big deal to Ingo, tied to a chair, prepped for a hack job surgery despite his desperate attempts to escape. The robots don't see a need for something like anesthesia, or sanitization, or sharp tools. What's a little rust on the saw going to hurt?

Mercifully, Ingo passes out very quickly.

For some reason the operation doesn't get blood everywhere. They wire the device into Ingo's neck before stitching it back up.

Elsewhere, Emmet joins a group of people investigating the disappearances in hopes of finding Ingo. They find their way to the dilapidated building and investigate. When they accidentally set off an alarm, the voice over the loud speakers is one Emmet knows well. (See the image before the cut)

In a small office, Emmet finds Ingo, bound to a chair and with a strange machine embedded in his neck. The machine, in addition to forcing Ingo to say whatever is entered in, prevents him from speaking otherwise. So all Ingo can do is mouth his brother's name.

Alight folks, October is here. You know what that means. Time to...

[fae-sodapop]

I'm slowly getting sucked back into the FNAF & Little Nightmares fandoms and I fear something grave is going to happen in October.

Multiple fandoms really, Adventure time AGAIN but Fiona & cake this time, Good omens, supernatural AGAIN, and of course

My favorite gay pirates.
