A relative of the Bibas family: 'We don't know if they are alive or injured'

Yossi Schneider, a cousin of Shiri Bibas who was kidnapped and taken to Gaza together with her husband Yarden and two sons Ariel, 4, and Kfir, 10 months, was interviewed on Arieh Golan's radio program on Reshet Bet.

He said that his family has not received any information about their family's physical condition: "We don't know if they are alive or wounded, Yarden was wounded when he was abducted."

Schneider criticized the world's indifference to Hamas massacres committed on Oct. 7.

"I am interviewed a lot around the world. Along with the empathy that I sometimes receive, I am asked about Israel's actions and encounter criticism. We are always to blame for everything. I tell them that October 7 is a day to remember, one day they will wake up to the same reality," he said.

He even discussed the possibility of a hostage deal that includes releasing all Israeli hostages for all Palestinian prisoners. He replied: "we don't want dozens more Yahya Sinwars walking around. There could be more like him and there are also families who were harmed by those murderers and they will have to deal with the knowledge that the person who harmed their relatives is going free. I can't, I'm not resolute in my messages."
