In a powerful announcement, the Israel Defense Forces and Shin Bet confirmed that a Hamas terrorist involved in the kidnapping of former hostage Yarden Bibas during the October 7, 2023 massacre was killed in an Israeli airstrike on August 10.
The militant, Jihad Kamal Salem Najjar, participated in the deadly assault on Kibbutz Nir Oz, where Bibas and his family were abducted.
While Bibas expressed partial closure after the strike, he reminded the nation that true justice will only come once all remaining abductees are freed.
Bibas, released in February during a ceasefire deal, lost his wife Shiri and two young sons, Ariel (4) and Kfir (10 months), who were murdered in captivity.
Their bodies were returned under the same deal.
Since then, Bibas has been lobbying Israeli and American leaders to pressure Hamas for the release of dozens still held hostage, including his close friend David Cunio.
The United States has signaled readiness to resume stalled nuclear talks with Iran, sending a message via envoy Steve Witkoff assuring no escalation during negotiations. Tehran confirmed receipt but remains cautious, demanding guarantees against U.S. military action. Iran insists cooperation with the IAEA follow national law, while anger grows over Israeli strikes killing civilians in Tehran. European powers warn of sanctions if talks don’t resume by August. Supreme Leader Khamenei and officials increasingly view diplomacy as vital to national survival.
