Hamas doesn't 'have any idea' how many Israeli hostages are alive

Osama Hamdan, a Hamas spokesman and political bureau member, claimed the group doesn’t know how many of the roughly 120 Israeli hostages still held in Gaza are still alive.

“I don’t have any idea about that. No one has an idea about this,” he told CNN. Hamdan also repeated the unproven Hamas claim that Israel’s rescue operation that saved four hostages resulted in the deaths of three others who were kidnapped on Oct. 7.
