The military wing of Hamas has released a video that reportedly shows three Israeli hostages in Gaza, two of whom appear to have been killed by an alleged Israeli air strike.
The Ezzedine Al Qassam Brigades published the propaganda video on its Telegram channel on Monday after previewing it the previous day.
The video begins with three people speaking to camera who identify themselves as Yossi Sharabi, 53, Itai Svirsky, 38, and Noa Argamani, 26.
All three were taken captive by Hamas when it attacked Israel on October 7.

The video contains messages from the hostages, with English subtitles, before Mr Sharabi and Mr Svirsky later appear to have been killed.
Earlier in the video, Mr Svirsky says he feels "deserted" and urges Israeli Prime Minister Benjamin Netanyahu to "stop the war".
"Bring us home. We are in difficult conditions, there is no food or water. I am in constant danger everywhere," Mr Svirsky tells the camera.

Ms Argamani then appears on screen and says their captors are "caring for us as much as they can but there aren't much resources left".
"The war needs to end now," says Mr Sharabi.

The video then switches back to Ms Argamani, who describes the apparent deaths of Mr Svirsky and Mr Sharabi from an Israeli air strike.
She says that all three hostages were buried under debris after a strike.
Ms Argamani says three rockets from an F16 hit the building they were in, with two exploding and one not.
She recounts how Ezzedine Al Qassam Brigades soldiers managed to pull her and Mr Svirsky free from the rubble, but were unable to save Mr Sharabi.
Later, Ms Argamani and Mr Svirsky were being taken to a different location, when their vehicle was hit by another air strike, she says.
She says that Mr Svirsky was killed, while she sustained injuries to her head from shrapnel.
"While we are live, bring us home," Ms Argamani says.

The video then shows what appear to be the dead bodies of Mr Sharabi and Mr Svirsky.
Israel's army criticised Hamas for releasing the video on Monday, saying it was a "brutal use of innocent hostages".
Military spokesman Admiral Daniel Hagari also rejected Hamas's claim the two hostages were killed by Israeli bombing, saying: "This is a lie by Hamas."
About 240 people were taken hostage on October 7. About half of the hostages were released during the week-long truce in November, almost all of whom were women and children.
Israel says 132 captives remain in Gaza, and that about 25 have died in captivity.
The Israeli military accused Hamas of "psychological abuse" on Tuesday.
Defence Minister Yoav Gallant said that Hamas would not agree to release any more hostages without ongoing military pressure from Israel's operations in Gaza.
Mr Gallant added that once the war had finished, there would be no more threat from Hamas.
"At the end of the war there won't be a military threat from Gaza. Hamas won't be able to rule and function as a military force in the Gaza Strip," he said.
More than 24,100 Palestinians have been killed since the outbreak of the war on October 7.

Assuming it's even true....
Since Israel strikes buildings that they know contain (or possibly here, recently contained) Hamas military units, that means Hamas fired on IDF soldiers from that location and then moved - or already had - hostages there, knowing that they would be hit in the counter-fire.
Still murder.
This is going to be the game from now on. Hamas will draw fire and move hostages to that location to be killed by their own people.

Isn't that a war crime?
BTW: Back in the old days we fought wars mano a mano. Now the enemy doesn't even wear uniforms and they grab hostages.
Israel killed them.
Hamas wouldn't, they are far too valuable in negotiations.
Two captives killed in Israeli air strikes: Qassam Brigades
In a follow-up to a video released yesterday, Hamas’s Qassam Brigades released a video that depicts what appear to be the bodies of two Israeli captives, Yossi Sharabi and Itay Svirsky.
In the video, another captive, Noa Argamani, says that she was injured in an Israeli air strike that killed Sharabi, before adding that Svirsky was then killed in another strike. The claims made in the video cannot be independently verified.
Well, it's been the other way around for most of the colonized, and not just in Palestine, either. Throughout history as well...
They murder because they're butchers and sacrifice their own people for the sake of Islam.
Fingers are certainly out and pointing. No matter who gets the blame though, looks like IDF supplied the firepower
...
...
Quite the contrary. They're more valuable as sacrifices if they can be somehow linked with an Israeli military strike.
Let's work through this. Gaza is the population size of Vancouver. It's huge. It's impossible to "carpet bomb" it, as you claim. So Israel is hitting buildings selectively and only when those strikes are called in by ground observers who are fired on or observe Hamas fighters. So it's unlucky to be hit with an Israeli air strike.
Those hostages were hit, not once but twice.
So if you accept the Hamas version, it would be almost freakishly unlucky to be hit with 2 Israeli strikes. Or the hostages are being deliberately moved to dangerous locations in order to be caught in an Israeli strike.
Either that, or Hamas simply struck them with rockets and claimed it was the IDF. Hamas has done that before.
Or Hamas fired a rocket into the building. If the hostages are bound and blindfolded, how would they know the difference??Fingers are certainly out and pointing. No matter who gets the blame though, looks like IDF supplied the firepower
Do you read these threads at all, or just post stuff? Zionists being colonists is what all the rounds of fighting and outfits like Hamas are basically about...
cool story, bro.
If you think Hamas has tunnels and is hiding hostages then Israel carpet bombing Gaza will eventually kill them all.
Netanyahu is facing mass protests because he'd rather continue with the genocide then call for a ceasefire and have the hostages returned.
There is nowhere safe in Gaza.
You know Israel has what they call 'settlements' in the Occupied Territories of Palestine that they fill with 'settlers'.
You also know that every single settlement is illegal, a war crime.
But you can't put those together, can you?
Its time to let go of your inner Churchill:
In 1937, he told the Palestine Royal Commission:
You post on this board as if you are still living in that world.
