The Israeli government has prepared to extradite his mother Padma and sister Pushpa to Israel and take them to the United Nations to increase international pressure for the release of Bipin Joshi, who is under the control of the Palestinian militant group Hamas. Officials of the Ministry of External Affairs said that the documents including their visas have been completed and will be returned soon.
The government of Israel is planning to send the United States to meet with the UN officials. "There is a plan to ask for initiative and pressure through the United Nations for Bipin's release and also to meet with the US President," said Sagi Karni, head of the Middle East Asia Department of the Ministry of Foreign Affairs.
Only 20 of the 50 people under Hamas control are believed to be alive, Carney said. "Who among those 20 people is alive and who has died, we are not in a position to say clearly," he said.
Israel Special Forces Captain Nadav Ben Yahuda said that he is doing his best for the release of Vipin. "I will come to Kathmandu with Bipin, I believe we will be successful in that," he said.
Nepali Ambassador to Israel Dhan Prasad Pandit informed that the Israeli government or other sources are not able to say clearly about the latest situation of Vipin. No information has been released by Hamas about Bipin either. "The prime minister and foreign minister from Nepal are asking some countries to have a dialogue with Israel and Hamas on the issue of peace," he said.
When Hamas attacked a kibbutz in southern Israel on October 7, 2023, 1,200 people were killed and 251 people, including Bipin, were taken hostage. Vipin went to Israel to study agriculture under the 'Learn and Earn' programme. 10 Nepali students died in the kibbutz in the attack of Hamas.
When Israel attacked Palestine after the attack by Hamas, more than 60,000 people were killed, including about 18,500 children and 9,700 women, according to the BBC. About 150,000 people were injured in the 22-month war.
A few days ago, during the cease-fire between Israel and Hamas for a few days, Foreign Minister Arzu Rana Deuba appealed to Qatar's Minister of State for Foreign Affairs Mohammad bin Abdul Aziz Al Khulaifi over the phone for the release of Bipin.
She also requested the Israeli government for her release through the Israeli ambassador to Nepal, Shmulik Ari Bash. Ambassador Bash informed Minister Rana that the Israeli government had received the news that the Hamas group was about to release 34 people, including the elderly, women, children and people with critical health conditions.
During that period, although Hamas released some hostages, Bipin did not. The family has repeatedly met the president, prime minister and other high officials asking them to take initiative for Bipin's release. The family has also had a virtual conversation with Israeli President Isaac Herzog. He has also met with the Israeli ambassador in Nepal several times.
