When Hamas militants staged the worst-ever attack on Israel, they took back into the Gaza Strip 251 hostages, some of them already dead.
A year later, 64 people, including two children, are still in captivity and Israel believes they are alive.
For the Palestinian militant group that rules the Gaza Strip, the hostages are key bargaining chips to negotiate a truce with Israel and seek the release of Palestinian prisoners held in Israeli jails.
Here is what we know about the hostages still held in Gaza.
