Here’s the part where you form your opinion. The act of killing your own people to avoid a capture instinctively sounds terrible. But also consider what it means to be captured and likely tortured for an indeterminate time.

“this is a sad tactic but it’s a part of war”

"Friendly Fire" is a term used in military situations, but killing your own people on purpose, I do not see that as being a "sad tactic."

The article explains what happens when Israelis are taken hostage; a hostage exchange happens, which Israel does not want to do; that is why the Hannibal Directive was used on October 7th with civilians.

Since many were being taken hostage, while we also know how they were being treated by Hamas, the article explains and other interviews show what the hosatges said while being hostages of Hamas.
