**Freed Israeli Hostage’s Family Demands Answers**
The family of a freed Israeli hostage is calling for answers about the fate of his wife and children. Yarden Bibas, 34, was released on Saturday along with two other Hamas hostages in exchange for 183 Palestinians held by Israel.
**Kidnapped During Gaza Attack**
Bibas’ wife Shiri, and their two sons Ariel and Kfir were kidnapped during a Hamas attack in October 2023. Hamas claimed they were killed in an Israeli airstrike in November 2023, but provided no evidence. The Israeli military has not confirmed the report.
**Family Demands Justice**
Shiri’s sister Dana Silberman Sitton said the family “would no longer accept uncertainty” and demanded answers about their fate. She accused the state of failing to protect her family. “We demand them back,” she said.
**Government Searches for Hostages**
The Israeli government has been searching for the hostages, but so far, only eight out of 26 remaining hostages have been confirmed dead by Hamas. The families of the deceased were informed, but no names were mentioned.
**Israeli President Worried**
Israeli President Isaac Herzog described Mr. Bibas’s return as “simply heartbreaking” and said his country remains “deeply worried” about the fate of the hostages.
