Why are they not demanding the release of the hostages or at the very least to verify the hostages are not being tortured and are actually alive with the same vigour and frequency?

Well, if we care about these people, it should be fairly obvious what a ceasefire would accomplish, no?
The UN and their representatives have demanded the release of the hostages multiple times. Is it fair to question why the release of hostages wasn’t included in this demand? Sure. Is it fair to question whether <200 hostages are worth putting thousands more at risk? Of course.
But I also think the complete dismissal of the UN, considering how expansive it is and how much good it does despite its bloat or the ineffectiveness of things like the security council is entirely misguided.
