The family of IDF soldier Tamir Nimrodi, who was kidnapped to Gaza on October 7, remains hopeful. In a statement released overnight (Thursday to Friday), the family stressed that in the absence of any other information, Tamir is still classified as alive.
We Have Not Received Any Information to the Contrary
“Tamir was taken into Gaza alive, and we have not received a single piece of information that proves otherwise. The classification of ‘concern for his life’ is a reflection of an ongoing situation based on the lack of a sign of life, not the result of any new evidence,” the family said. “It is important to emphasize that in the absence of any new information, Tamir is still officially considered alive by all relevant authorities.”
The family added that it urges the public and media to avoid inaccurate portrayals that could harm Tamir, and clarified: “We will continue to pray and fight with all our strength for his return—along with the other 58 hostages still being held.”
Concerns for the Lives of Three Hostages
As previously reported, an official source stated that there are concerns for the lives of three hostages—one Israeli and two foreign nationals. Shortly thereafter, it was revealed that the Israeli hostage in question is IDF soldier Tamir Nimrodi.
