The IDF, which has been dropping leaflets and utilising social media to encourage Gazans to share information on Hamas' whereabouts, offers a $400,000 reward for information leading to the capture of Hamas leader Yahya Sinwar.
Discontented Palestinians are reaching out not only to share intelligence but also to express their frustration with Hamas. They blame the group for backtracking Gaza's progress by a century and equate them to captors of the Palestinian people.
One citizen called Hamas leaders "dogs" and predicted divine retribution. Another highlighted the luxury lifestyle of Hamas leaders abroad, contrasting it with the destruction in Gaza.
Following Hamas' violent attacks on October 7, which resulted in over 1,200 deaths near the Gaza border, the current count of captives in Gaza stands at 136, encompassing various demographic backgrounds. Meanwhile, Israeli efforts to recover bodies and account for the missing continue.
