Within hours, 10 of the 18-strong assault team were dead and the remaining eight were in captivity.

That feeling has been echoed by many hostage families, worried that their relatives will die in captivity as the war grinds on, or be killed in Israeli airstrikes.

Some 54 of those captured during the attack remain in captivity, including 31 the Israeli military says are dead.
