Body of 65-Year-Old Hamas Hostage Found by IDF Near Al-Shifa Hospital in Gaza City

In a sad development amidst the Israel-Hamas war, the body of 65-year-old hostage Yehudit Weiss, who was captured by terrorists during the October 7 attacks, was found near the Shifa Hospital in Gaza City, Israel Defense Forces said in a statement Thursday. Weiss was a resident of kibbutz Be’eri, and her family has been notified and her remains returned to Israel.

The kibbutz came under intense assault during the attacks, and Hamas terrorists murdered more than 120 of its residents, including children, while kidnapping others.

The official account of the State of Israel mourned:

Heartbreaking 💔

We are devastated to share that the body of Yehudit Weiss, a 65 year old Israeli woman who was taken hostage and murdered by Hamas was found by the IDF in a structure near the Shifa Hospital.

Kalashnikov rifles and RPGs were also found in the structure.…

The tweet continues:

Kalashnikov rifles and RPGs were also found in the structure.  Yehudit was a cancer patient whose husband Shmuel was murdered by Hamas terrorists on October 7.  May Yehudit’s memory be a blessing.

As we reported, IDF raided the hospital Wednesday and found weapons and information on hostages that they say prove Hamas was using it as a battle station:

Entering an MRI room at the hospital, the BBC’s [Lucy] Williamson reports that the IDF says it has recovered “more than a dozen Kalashnikovs, grenades, personal protective equipment, some of it with the Hamas military brigade insignia on it — you can see some of them here, hidden under these bags of medical supplies.”

“We’re also told that there have been laptops found with some information about the hostages — recent files that suggest this may have been a Hamas operating base as recently as a few days ago,” she adds.

Hamas has consistently denied they use hospitals as bases of operation, but Israel has provided video and other evidence that shows otherwise, and now they have more. 

IDF tweeted their condolences, writing:

Yehudit Weiss was a 65-year-old who worked with kindergarten kids. 

On October 7, Yehudit was abducted by Hamas from her home in Kibbutz Be’eri. Her husband, Shmulik Weiss, was murdered in their home. Yehudit and Shmulik were parents to 5 children. 

IDF soldiers recovered her body from a building adjacent to the Shifa Hospital in Gaza earlier today. 

AK-47s, RPGs, and other military equipment were also found where Yehudit's body was located. 

The IDF sends its heartfelt condolences to the Weiss family.

Over 200 hostages were taken during the unprovoked Oct. 7 attack, and their conditions are unknown. IDF did not give out any details about how Weiss died, but they did say that Hamas killed her and that her body was found in a "structure" near the hospital. She had been battling cancer before her untimely death.

Her family told an Israeli news outlet of their pain:

"Today we were told that Yehudit's body has been retrieved from Gaza," her family told KAN News after the announcement.

We have battled and fought for our grandmother and mother, it's too late for us," the family said. "We just finished 30 days of mourning for our grandfather, her husband" Shmulik, who was murdered on October 7.

"But we are still calling on Israel to return all the hostages. It is not too late for them."

May she rest in peace.

Yehudit Weiss, 64, was sick with cancer when Hamas death squads murdered her husband in Be’eri and abducted her to Gaza on October 7.

The IDF found her body in a building containing Kalashnikovs and RPGs adjacent to the Shifa Hospital. 💔

The press will likely report the HAMAS take on this... As they typically do.

According to HAMAS: She was treated very well and was kept close to the hospital for treatment and then the big bad Israeli’s killed her.

[verum ago]

In a sad development amidst the Israel-Hamas war, the body of 65-year-old hostage Yehudit Weiss, who was captured by terrorists ...

no.
No.
NO.
NO!

She was not "captured." She was ABDUCTED, or KIDNAPPED.

And then she was murdered.

• • •

But don't worry y'all, CNN will probably craft a headline implying that Hamas was taking her to the hospital for treatment when the evil Joooos deliberately killed her...

[QBFimi]

120 killed? WTF? So, my understanding is that Joe-on-the Street Israelis get to own a firearm and 50 rounds of ammunition.

Suggestion: Joe, and his wife and kids over age 13 each get an AR-15, initial and recurrent training, and lotsa ammo.

Joe-armed-to-the-Teeth sounds a helluva lot better to me.

May her memory be a blessing. Round up all remaining Hamas subhuman savages and feed them into a wood chipper, after gelding them. Feed what is left over to pigs.

Hamas and America do not understand, imho, that there is a new era now. The Hamas slaughter of unarmed innocents and mass kidnapping of hostages is a turning point for Israelis. Israel will never return to the paradigm that existed before October 7. Hamas is an existential threat to Israel, to jews and to Israelis, as well as to all jews and their supporters in the diaspora. It marks the end of Israel’s coexistence with an Iran (Russia) funded proxy enemy of Islamist Hamas being tolerated adjacent to Israel. Hamas exists no more, its is only a matter of time to reach their eradication. So far Gaza City has been entered and is being cleansed of the enemy. Next will be Khan Yunis. It will take another 2 months of door to door eradication of Hamas. Gaza will not be resettled for many years, and the UN will not be allowed to return and provide infrastructure for the Hamas Islamist Jihad criminals.

The problem here is the Koran teachings for islamists to kill all the jews. Hamas has widespread support because the “religion” is a barbaric middle ages civil code. Gaza should be scrubbed of all Islam. It is not a “religion of peace”, contrary to all the lying claims of supporters including many American politicians and news agencies. It is a religion of death and destruction, rooted in Satanic origins.

America gets it. those who founded this country understood your point and many of us Citizens do too. The God haters and deniers in America dont.

That would be good except that your “understanding” is AFU

Was watching some video of IDF tanks in Gaza City - in ruins. Folks were trying to figure out what Hamas was thinking by poking the tiger. One person made a good point - that perhaps Hamas thought that the IDF would come in with small patrols of soldiers doing small raids, searching for the hostages and the leaders of Hamas. And then Hamas could pop up out of their tunnels and pick them off and then scamper back underground.

Perhaps Hamas was led to believe that Israel’s actions would be moderated by world outcry against an actual war. Perhaps Hamas had also thought that Israel’s benevolence towards the people of Gaza and allowing workers to come into Israel to earn a living was taken as a sign of weakness.

[Justa]

So you think the Jews should be unarmed in their own country?

That’s how this happened imo. Even arming them won’t stop attacks. It will just minimize the impact of attacks.

“So you think Jews should be unarmed in their own country?”
No, absolutely not! I was responding to QBFimi foolishness
go back read it again

Hamas probably expected a more vigorous response from the Muslim world, which has responded with words, not guns. They knew the Israelis were too complacent and that a surprise attack with maximum casualties and extreme brutality would provoke a harsh Israeli response. The United States responded by sending a huge fleet to the eastern Mediterranean, scaring off Iran, Turkey, Hezbollah, and other would be players. Iran will not act without Russian or Chinese assurance, which presumably has not been provided.

Hamas miscalculated badly. The question remains: will Israel clean Gaza up? Do they have the will to do what they need to do?

[Islam] is a religion of death and destruction, rooted in Satanic origins.

TRUTH that should be memorized, repeated, and taught in schools.

[Demiurge2]

Time to be honest... should we expect ANY of the hostages to be recovered alive?

[Blood of Tyrants]

Yep, the leftists will dutifully carry the party line for Hamas.
