Three hostages footage released by Hamas

Hamas has made a video where they show three people being kept as prisoners in Gaza.

We don’t have information about how the filming happened, but the three women seem to be in decent health and there are no obvious signs of injury on them.

In the video, a woman talks directly to the camera about Israeli Prime Minister Benjamin Netanyahu and asks for the hostages to be released. She shares her negative thoughts about him.

We won’t put the video out. People who are captured during wars or taken hostage are given special protections according to international laws that deal with how to treat them. The BBC, a television network, doesn’t show videos that may have been filmed when someone is being forced or threatened.
