To assign a deliberate action, and then assign a large number to that action, seems a little like an attempt to lessen the negative view of the atrocities committed that day.

I don't think that there was any immediate villainy on the part of Isreal in this conflict. I think that came later. There is probably no point in mudding the waters concerning the actions on October 7th. Not a fan of rewriting history to support a narrative.

But I'd probably go as far as believing 100% that hostages were killed in the retreat, by Israelis.
There was no fire exchanges on hostage captures. Those Hamas fighters, who were ordered to take hostages, just took hostages and rode back to Gaza.
