Israeli officials spent the afternoon updating the public on where things stand on their war with Hamas, but the meeting was cut short due to attacks in the area.
Amid the Israel and Hamas war, Israeli officials said it's not the time for hostage negotiations but instead focusing on preventing another attack.The information session went on for nearly an hour before that took place, and a member of the Israel Defense Forces said their goal at the moment is to make sure Hamas can never do this to Israel again.
"We aren't ready to talk about that because we are focused on how to prevent it from happening again," Lerner said. "There will be time for a review of the circumstances, but these are things that will have to be investigated at a later time." He said they're also working to eliminate Hamas' ability to gather intelligence and are going after the leaders he said coordinated and carried out the attack on Saturday.A member of the media then asked how many hostages are currently being held, and Lior Haiat of the Israeli Ministry of Foreign Affairs said they believe that number is somewhere between 100 and 150."I don't think this is time for negotiations," Haiat said.
