Israeli PM threatens military strike over abducted soldier


Story byKai Wang, StarArticle.com

Israeli troops are massing along the Gaza Strip border following the Israeli Prime Minister's threats against Palestinian militants. This came as a result of the abduction of an Israeli soldier early Sunday.

The abducted soldier was Cpl. Gilad Shalit, a dual French-Israeli citizen who followed his older brother into the Israeli military. His kidnapping occurred during an attack on an Israeli military compound by Palestinian militants - believed to have ties to Hamas - who tunneled into Israel. Two Israeli soldiers and three Palestinian militants were also killed during the attack.

Israeli PM Olmert stated that he would not negotiate with the kidnappers. Furthermore, he stated that he holds the entire Palestinian leadership responsible for the abducted soldier's safety.

According to reports, Palestinian President Mahmoud Abbas was working with Egyptian mediators and Arab and Western leaders in an attempt to locate the soldier. A spokesperson for the Hamas-led Palestinian government claimed to have received information stating that Shalit was alive and had urged the soldier's captors to keep him safe.

Gazid Hamad, a spokesman for the Hamas government, claimed that Hamas was working with Abbas and Egypt to find a peaceful resolution and that the Hamas political leadership was not informed that an attack had been planned. In addition, he had also appealed for the soldier's safe release.

Reports also stated that some members of the Hamas leadership were also in negotiation with the soldier's captors to secure his release.

Meanwhile, Shalit's family also came out and to plead with his captors to treat him humanely.

In Gaza City, some relatives of Palestinians held in Israeli prisons urged the militants to hold Shalit until the Israeli government agress to a large-scale release of Palestinians being jailed by Israel.
