SUMMARY:Lunch Briefing—Civilians in War: Securing the Safe Return of Hostages and Ensuring Just Treatment of Detainees
DESCRIPTION:\nIt has been over two months since Hamas launched its deadly attack on Israel, taking roughly 240 hostages of whom over 130 remain in captivity. With talks resuming, what are the prospects for future release of hostages coupled with a ceasefire and the release of Palestinian prisoners? What is the role of the mediating countries, Egypt and Qatar? In light of the devastating news that 3 Israeli hostages were killed by the IDF, what steps is Israel taking to ensure the safety of the hostages while carrying out its operations? What does the flooding of the tunnels in Gaza mean for the security of those in captivity? Recent reporting has suggested Israel has arrested hundreds of suspected Hamas fighters. What is known about Israel’s plans for interrogating these suspects, and is Israel committed to abiding by the Geneva Conventions in their treatment? Featuring Speakers Ambassador John W. Limbert, LTC (Res.) Adv. Avi Kalo, Brigadier General (Ret.) Stephen N. Xenakis, M.D. and Mr. Ido Dan. Moderated by Prof. Claire Finkelstein\n\n\n\n\n\n\n
