Yes, Israel made that accusation 3 months ago and then failed to provide any single shred of evidence of that to this day. Accusation is useless without proof. I can say "you are x and x and x" but without any proof, that doesn't make it true...
Clearly you are misinformed. Hamas agreed to release the hostages as part of the last ceasefire agreement they signed and Israel rejected.
And the war criminal Netanyahu doesn't give a shit about hostages. Gaza: Israeli PM Netanyahu says Rafah attack will happen regardless of deal
And yet yesterday we have clear video released showing armed Hamas fighters headbands and all. Getting in and out of UNRWA vehicles just outside the Rafah gate.
You've got the agency acknowledging that they were supplying Hamas with power underneath their headquarters, yet somehow we're supposed to believe they weren't aware.
Got thousands of pages of documents linking employees of the agency to Hamas.
And yet when the UN investigates itself it finds nothing wrong. Even while we're seeing them covertly revise the mortality numbers and cutting the number of children dead in half. So what are we supposed to believe? Because they've certainly undermined any credibility that they could possibly have on this file with their public statements and actions.
When you don't believe what you see with your own eyes, It's because your bias is stronger than your ability to reason.
Edit. Hamas agreed to release bodies when they couldn't come up with the number of hostages that they said they could. They've admitted they can't turn over the number of live hostages to fulfill their end of the bargain. So how is that Israel's fault? Hostages in exchange for truce is the deal, The only one misinformed here is you on a number of levels and it appears that you need to step outside your Echo chamber.
Can you source any of your claims?
And you clearly don't understand what the word independent means. Please read the sources cited before misstating facts.
Have you read the three-phase ceasefire deal? Phase 1 guaranteed all civilian hostages release/bodies return. Phase 2 guaranteed all military hostages release/bodies return. And phase 3 mentioned exchange of any other bodies that each of them had.
And the hostages became bodies because of Israel actions and not Hamas. Israel's indiscriminate killing is why bodies instead of alive hostages are being returned.
Want to link this proof?

Video embedded within. Plenty of other articles on this if this video doesn't satisfy.
Was the video independently verified? Or did Israel say it's true, so it's must be true? The fact that major corporate news networks didn't post the video, doesn't inspire confidence in the video validity. They are usually the first ones to suck up to Israel.
UNRWA said they are examining video authenticity.
You also failed to provide sources for your other claims. I'm still waiting. Prove your point is valid and that my "bias is stronger than your ability to reason".
It's a fucking video. You can watch it for yourself. You don't have to listen to anybody.
The level of stupidity being displayed around this issue is fucking Mind-Boggling. It really is people saying don't believe what you see with your own eyes. Believe what the international terrorist organization is saying..FFS.
Thanks!
step outside your echo chamber.
I'm here LoL, I really make an effort to take in both sides. One CLEARLY doesn't know what the fuck they're talking about or who they're aligning with.
It's you
You CLEARLY doesn't know what the fuck you're talking about or who you're aligning with.
I'm quite confident I know who I'm aligned with and who I'm against. It's also pretty evident that I'm much more familiar with the situation on the ground than you are having spent time on both sides of the wall..
I'm quite confident I know who you're aligned with and who you're against.
