Clinton Criticizes Netanyahu Over Hostage Crisis

Former Secretary of State urges families to pressure Israeli government for a deal with Hamas, mentions Biden administration's efforts for a 'Christmas deal'.

Hillary Clinton, in a meeting with families of Israeli hostages, criticized Israeli Prime Minister Benjamin Netanyahu for prioritizing politics over the release of the hostages.
Clinton reportedly urged the families to put more pressure on the Israeli government to negotiate a deal with Hamas for the release of the hostages.
Clinton also mentioned that the Biden administration was making efforts to reach a 'Christmas deal' for the release of more hostages.
Hamas has refused to release 132 hostages, including eight Americans, since their deadly attack on Israel on October 7.
Hamas officials stated they would not discuss any hostage exchange deal 'except after a full cessation of aggression.'
