“A New Yorker who was kidnapped by Hamas on Oct. 7 was confirmed dead on Monday, according to the Israeli military. Omer Neutra, 21, had long been assumed to be alive, but was actually killed during the terrorist attack, with his body taken to the Gaza Strip by Hamas, the Israel Defense Forces said. Neutra, of Plainview, Long Island, had been serving as an IDF tank commander. … Israeli authorities say there are still 62 hostages alive in Gaza. Hamas is also holding the bodies of 35 hostages who were murdered — either on Oct. 7 or while they were in captivity. In total 251 people were abducted from Israel during the terrorist attack last year.” (12/02/24)
