Det är 5 år sedan den israeliska soldaten Gilad Schalit kidnappades av Hamas på israeliskt territorium.
Under de senaste två åren har det inte getts några livstecken från honom.
Röda korset har inför femårsdagen krävt att få träffa honom eftersom isoleringen strider mot internationella avtal.
Hamas tillbakavisade genast kravet och uppmanade Röda korset att inte blanda sig i Israels spel för att frita Schalit.
Efter att Israels PM meddelat att de palestinska terrorister som sitter i israeliska fängelser kommer att fråntas en del fördelar (de har bl.a. kunnat studera sig till en akademisk examen) om inte Röda korset får besöka Schalit, klagade Hamas på att detta skulle strida mot internationell lag. Detta visar på sitt sätt vilken brist på logik som finns i tänkesättet hos terroristorganisationen.
PM: No more special benefits for Palestinian prisoners
"In an unusual public appeal, the independent aid agency said Schalit's family had a right under international humanitarian law to be in contact with their 24-year-old son, held incommunicado since his capture on June 25, 2006."Because there has been no sign of life from Mr. Schalit for almost two years, the ICRC is now demanding that Hamas prove that he is alive," the Geneva-based International Committee of the Red Cross (ICRC) said.The ICRC also reiterated its long-standing request to visit Schalit in custody."The total absence of information concerning Mr. Schalit is completely unacceptable," ICRC Director-General Yves Daccord said in a statement."We don't know anything about his conditions of detention. But from information available to us we have serious concerns about his fate," Jean-Pierre Schaerer, head of the ICRC delegation in Israel and the occupied territories, told Reuters."He is completely isolated."
