Is the cost of saving Israeli hostages in Gaza too high?

Four hostages taken by Hamas during last year’s October 7 attacks were rescued safely from Gaza at the weekend.

According to the Gazan health ministry, 274 Palestinians were killed, sixty-four of them children, during the brutal operation to free the hostages.

In this episode of The Briefing, we’re joined by Sarah Schwartz, a human rights lawyer and executive officer of the Australian Jewish Council to discuss a morally sound way to react to Israeli lives being saved alongside Palestinian lives being taken, and how we should maintain humanity and our empathy for everyone involved.
