The Hostages and Missing Families Forum and the Tzarfati family slammed Hamas and its continued psychological warfare, following the circulation of a video showing the organization’s burial and “discovery” of Ofir Tzarfati’s remains on Tuesday.
The video, filmed by an IDF drone that had been in the area, shows Hamas members placing Tzarfati’s remains in a freshly dug hole before covering the remains with dirt. They then proceeded to “dig” up the remains and called over members of the International Committee of the Red Cross (ICRC) to witness the discovery.
The ICRC claimed that its team operating on the ground was unaware of Hamas’s staging attempt, and that its “role as a neutral mediator does not include the removal of the bodies of deceased hostages from the ground,” in a statement responding to the video.
