Hamas releases video of two Israeli hostages alive in Gaza
- On Saturday, Hamas shared a three-minute video from Gaza showing two Israeli captives, identified as Elkana Bohbot and Yosef-Haim Ohana, alive after being held for 582 days.
- During Hamas's assault on October 7, 2023, which targeted a music festival resulting in the deaths of more than 300 attendees, numerous hostages were taken, setting off the current conflict.
- In the video, Ohana appeals to Israel to end the 19-month conflict and ensure the release of all hostages, while Bohbot appears frail and is shown resting on the ground covered with a blanket.
- Elkana and Yosef's families have expressed urgent pleas for their rescue, highlighting growing concerns over Bohbot's worsening physical and mental condition and calling on authorities to take immediate action.
- The video release coincides with continued Israeli military operations aiming to force Hamas to free hostages, as about 59 remain captive and the war’s fate remains uncertain.
