false. Hannibal directive has nothing to do with hostages

> false. Hannibal directive has nothing to do with hostages

Weird, The IDF says it's indeed about kidnapped hostages: [1]

> the General Staff Directive for Contending with Kidnapping Attempts (also known as the "Hannibal" Directive) was initiated, meaning a number of actions necessary to locate and rescue kidnapped soldiers were put into effect.

Why would you even try to lie about its purpose when it's well known and documented?
