Family of infant captive informed about Hamas claim of his death

Family members of the youngest Israeli hostage being held in Gaza, 10-month-old Kfir Bibas, said on Wednesday that they have been informed of Hamas reports that the infant, his brother and mother have been killed, but they are awaiting official notification from Israeli authorities.

"Our family has learned of Hamas' latest claims," a statement from the Hostages and Missing Persons Families Forum said. "We are waiting for the information to be confirmed and hopefully refuted by military officials."
