Andrey Kozlov, 27, left, and Almog Meir Jan, 21, kidnapped from Israel in a Hamas-led attack on Oct. 7, 2023 react after arriving by helicopter to the Sheba Medical Center in Ramat Gan, Israel, Saturday, June 8, 2024. Israel says …

The New York Times came under criticism for a Saturday headline that said, “Hostages Return Home After Israeli Assault That Killed Scores of Gazans,” a framing that former New York Assemblyman Dov Hikind called “outrageous.” “Now, we can’t take at face value what Hamas says through the supposed Gaza Ministry of Health,” Mr. Cotton said. “But my advice to them would be: If you don’t want your people killed in hostage rescue missions, then you shouldn’t take hostages in the first place … and you certainly shouldn’t hide them in civilian areas.”

“It should not have come at the expense of at least 200 Palestinians, including children, killed and over 400 injured by Israel and allegedly foreign soldiers, while perfidiously hiding in an aid truck,” she said on X. “By the way, the people who were guarding and forcing the Israeli civilians to stay there were Palestinian civilians,” Mr. Conricus told Fox News. “It’s all a civilian situation here.”
