More than 100 hostages taken from Israel are being held captive in Gaza.

That's where we're starting today's show.

I'm Jeff Pierre and this is the 7th from the Washington Post.

It's Tuesday, October 10th. Let's get you caught up with

today's seven stories. At least 900 people have been killed in Israel since Saturday's deadly attack by the

Palestinian militant organization Hamas.

The militants took military and civilian captives from southern Israeli communities and a music festival.

A woman in southern Israel, her name is Adva Adar, spoke about the militants kidnapping her 85-year-old grandmother.

She texted us that there's our terrorist in the roads of the kibbutz, shooting, shouting.

That's the last message we got from her.

We found a video of her taken away.

With three or four, I don't know armed guards and that's the last thing we

know from her no one knows anything else.

Now the fate of the hostages is unclear.

Hamas has threatened to execute the captives in retaliation

for Israeli airstrikes on Gaza.

At least 765 people have been killed in Gaza so far.

Israel has ordered a full siege of the blockaded territory.

This would cut off electricity, food, water, fuel, and other basic goods to over 2 million Palestinians.

U.S. officials expect an Israeli ground incursion into Gaza this week.

President Biden is set to address the war at 1 PM Eastern today.

The U.S. is rushing to deliver military aid to Israel.
