Kidnapping and killing him are war crimes. https://www.haaretz.com/israel-news/2023-12-09/ty-article/.premium/sahar-baruch-25-taken-hostage-to-gaza-from-kibbutz-beeri-killed-in-captivity/0000018c-4e5d-db23-ad9f-6edde6c60000 https://casebook.icrc.org/a_to_z/glossary/prisoners-war https://lieber.westpoint.edu/hostage-taking-law-armed-conflict/#:~:text=despite%20media%C2%A0reports%C2%A0mislabeling%20those%20Hamas%20has%20seized%20as%20%E2%80%9Cprisoners%20of%20war%2C%E2%80%9D%20they%20are%20%E2%80%9Chostages%E2%80%9D%20as%20a%20matter%20of%20law.%20The%20acts%20that%20qualify%20them%20as%20hostages%20violate%20treaty%20and%20customary%20international%20law%2C%20and%20persons%20involved%20in%20the%20hostage%2Dtaking%20have%20committed%20war%20crimes.

Tweet embedding is no longer reliably available, due to the platform's instability (in terms of both technology and policy). If the Tweet still exists, you can view it here: https://twitter.com/foo_bar/status/1733198743275540971
Please note, though, that you may need to have your own Twitter account to access that page. I am currently exploring options for archiving Tweet data in a post-API context.
