📰 What Happened
On August 12, 2025, mothers of Israeli hostages held in Gaza since October 7, 2023, appealed to the International Committee of the Red Cross in Geneva, expressing fears that Israel's planned Gaza City offensive could endanger their sons. Viki Cohen, mother of captured soldier Nimrod Cohen (21), and Galia David, whose son Evyatar appeared emaciated in a recent Hamas video, voiced concerns about Hamas's threats to kill hostages when Israeli forces approach. The mothers called for negotiation over military action.
📖 Prophetic Significance
The two-year hostage crisis aligns with Daniel's prophecies about prolonged conflicts in the last days. The mothers' intervention in Geneva precisely matches Zechariah 12:2-3's prediction of Jerusalem becoming a 'cup of trembling' that draws international bodies into the conflict. The forced grave-digging video represents a new level of psychological warfare that parallels Revelation 13's description of increasing terror tactics against God's people. This extended captivity situation is creating unprecedented pressure on Israel's military decisions, potentially affecting the prophesied final battles for Jerusalem.
